title: [Right aortic arch with retro-esophageal aorta. Diagnosis by computerized axial tomography].
abstract: The case of a patient with right aortic arch and retro-esophageal aorta associated with a perimembranous ventricular septal defect with a mild fibrous subaortic stenosis is presented. The existence of the retro-esophageal segment of the aorta was confirmed by left ventriculography and computerized axial tomography. This patient is the first to be diagnosed by axial tomography in our country.
