Congenital anomalies of the aortic arch refer to structural abnormalities that occur during fetal development, resulting in variations in the normal anatomy of the aorta and its branching vessels. These anomalies can range from minor anatomical variations to severe malformations, and they may have significant clinical implications. Understanding these anomalies is crucial for clinicians, as early identification and appropriate management can lead to improved patient outcomes. This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of congenital anomalies of the aortic arch, including their classification, etiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic modalities, and treatment options.
