How should double aortic arch be treated?

summary

My friend is a single mother. A few days ago, she told me that when the child went to the hospital for examination, he was found to have double aortic arch and had to be operated on as soon as possible. Worried that her friend could not bear it alone, she went to the hospital with her. The doctor and we described some of the contents about the operation and then arranged the operation time. How should double aortic arch be treated? Now let me tell you something.

How should double aortic arch be treated?

The doctor said the operation should first recognize the position of the child's main bow. In general, the left anterior arch is smaller and the right posterior arch is larger, which encircles the trachea and esophagus and causes them to be compressed. This is the case with a friend's children.

Without affecting the blood supply of the child's common carotid artery, the doctor will cut off the smaller arch at an appropriate position to relieve the pressure on the child's esophagus, and free and cut off the aortic duct (ligament). After listening to these, I also feel scared.

After surgery, children often need to use endotracheal intubation and ventilator assisted breathing for several days, which can also timely and effectively remove the children's tracheal secretions. So that the child has a good prognosis.
