Abstract
Interruption of the ascending aorta is an extremely rare anomaly defined by a point of interruption between the intrapericardial and extrapericardial aorta and can be explained by developmental errors proximal to the embryologic right aortic sac. Herein, we present a case of interruption of the ascending aorta and describe a successful biventricular surgical repair of this unique anomaly.
