“…Since then, four further cases have been recorded (Potts, Holinger and Rosenblum, 1954;Morse and Gladding, 1955;Wittenborg, Tantiwongse and Rosenberg, 1956-two cases). Respiratory obstruction in these cases is usually fairly severe, but there may be slight differences in its manifestation depending on whether the obstruction involves the right main bronchus only or the distal portion of the trachea and consequently whether the child has unilateral or bilateral emphysema.…”

“…Three infants with anomalous left pulmonary arteries have been submitted to surgery. One child died of cardiac arrest before any attempt could be made to correct the fault (Welsh and Munro, 1954); one died I I days after operation (Morse and Gladding, 1955); and one survived and showed dramatic improvement (Potts et al, 1954 Embryological Considerations. According to Jordan and Kindred (1948) rudiments of the pulmonary arteries appear in two places.…”

“…A reconstrução 3D das imagens avalia de maneira mais efetiva a extensão da estenose traqueal, facilitando o planejamento da abordagem cirúrgica (14) . A primeira cirurgia bem sucedida descrita foi em 1954, na qual se seccionou a artéria anômala e se realizou a anastomose após a correção da sua localização (15) . Após este relato, a cirurgia tornou-se a única possibilidade real de cura.…”

“…Após este relato, a cirurgia tornou-se a única possibilidade real de cura. Com isso a técnica originalmente descrita por Potts et al (15) vem sendo modificada e outras técnicas foram descritas (16)(17)(18) . Três técni-cas vêm sendo usadas: a divisão do vaso anômalo, a divisão do ducto arterioso patente ou ligamento arterioso e a divisão do brônquio principal direito com posterior reanastomose (5) .…”

“…8 Surgical morbidity and mortality rates in symptomatic patients have improved markedly since the first successful repair by Willis Potts in 1953. 10 Recently, Fiore et al 11 have demonstrated a 79% survival rate in patients undergoing correction via transection of the LPA and reimplantation anterior to the trachea, as advocated by Backer et al 12 In contrast to symptomatic patients, the prognosis for asymptomatic patients is excellent, and surgical intervention is not indicated.…”
