description Interruption of the aortic arch and right subclavian artery aneurysm is a rare congenital malformation. Survival in adults depends on the formation of collaterals to supply the descending aorta.

We present a case of aortic arch interruption and a right subclavian artery aneurysm in a woman who survived to adulthood.
