Sağ arkus anomalisi erişkin çağda nadir görülen, genellikle asemptomatik bir durumdur. Trakea veya özefagusa bası durumunda hastalar bazen nefes darlığı veya disfaji gibi şikâyetlerle de başvurabilirler. Bu olgu sunumunda sağ arkus aorta anomalisi bulunan, yıllardır astım tanısı ile takip edilen 59 yaşında kadın hasta sunulmaktadır. Hastalarda astım ayırıcı tanısında vasküler ring gibi hava yolu basısına yol açan patolojilerin de düşünülmesi önemlidir. Anahtar Sözcükler: Astım, vasküler ring, dispne.Right aortic arch is a rare condition that is usually asymptomatic in adulthood. Patients may present with dyspnea and dysphagia. This report presents a 59-year-old woman with a right aortic arch anomaly who had been followed-up with asthma for many years. The current report emphasizes the importance of the consideration of aortic arch anomaly in the differential diagnosis of asthma.

“…Fifty-five to seventy percent of double aortic arch (DAA) is right dominant, 20 to 35% left dominant, and 5 to 10% balanced. 4 In most cases, the clinical presentation of DAA is often occurred early in life, usually within the first 6 months starting in the neonatal period. The symptoms are mainly respiratory due to the tracheal compression.…”

Reactive airway disease is a prevalent condition that can be detected in the early infancy period. The condition might also deteriorate into asthma in some cases. If infants do not respond to the treatment of persistent wheeze and coughing, other rare causes should be investigated. The complete form of vascular ring is an extremely uncommon congenital cardiovascular abnormality. Double aortic arch constitutes the most significant portion of the complete vascular ring anomalies. Clinical manifestations of the anomaly are mainly respiratory due to the tracheal compression and mimicking the conditions of asthma. There have not been many reports about the clinical presentations of double aortic arch being remarkably similar to the same clinical manifestations of asthma in the literature. As far as we can be sure, there have not been any reported cases about severe reactive airway disease that caused a patient to have a life-threatening condition in the pediatric intensive care unit. Herein, we present a 5-month-old girl who had double aortic arch. Her anatomical aberration was diagnosed by three-dimensional computed tomography angiography of thorax, and the anomaly mimicked the clinical characteristics of life-threatening severe reactive airway disease.
