Abstract

Aortic arch anomalies such as vascular ring are important causes of respiratory symptoms including recurrent pulmonary infections, persistant wheezing and stridor in infancy. These symptoms are related with the severity of airway obstruction which is secondary to the anatomic impression. The symptoms begin at early age and severely if the airway obstruction is evident. The disease can be diagnosed in the later years of life if the symptoms are mild and the anatomic impression is not severe. Here; we reported a ten year old girl who admitted with symptoms of asthma and was diagnosed as vascular ring with radiological investigations

Özet

Vasküler ring tiplerinden biri olan aortik ark anomalileri süt çocukluğu döneminde tekrarlayan akciğer enfeksiyonları, devamlı hışıltı, stridor gibi solunumsal semptomların önemli bir sebebidir. Bu semptomlar, anatomik basıya ikincil olarak gelişen havayolu obstrüksiyonunun derecesi ile ilişkilidir. Havayolu obstrüksiyonu belirgin ise yakınmalar erken yaşta ve ağır olarak ortaya çıkar. Semptomlar hafif ve anatomik bası belirgin değil ise hastalık yaşamın daha geç döneminde tanınabilir. Burada astım bulguları ile başvuran, radyolojik değerlendirmeler ile vasküler ring tanısı alan 10 yaşında bir kız olgu sunulmuştur.
