ABSTRACT

The interruption of the aortic arch is a rare pathology, with an incidence of 0.003 per 1000 newborns. Type A presents an interruption between the origin of the left subclavian artery and the descending aorta. We present the case of a newborn with cardiogenic shock secondary to type A aortic arch interruption with severe aortic hypoplasia. The patient underwent aortic advancement. It was found severe hypoplasia of the aorta, requiring placement of a Dacron graft.
