Right aortic arch anomalies occur in approximately 0.01 to 0.1 percent of the general population. In general, these anomalies do not directly cause any cardiovascular problems. However, in some patients, right aortic arches can be associated with other congenital heart defects, vascular rings, and chromosomal abnormalities such as DiGeorge syndrome. Rarely, various anatomical issues can arise, leading to complications that can require surgical intervention. This activity reviews the evaluation and management of right aortic arches and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in caring for affected patients and their families.
