BERGANTINI, María L. et al. Ring-sling complex association with pig bronchus: a pediatric case report. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2022, vol.120, n.3, pp.14-14.  Epub 01-Jun-2022. ISSN 0325-0075.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2022.e133.

The ring-sling complex is an association between pulmonary artery sling and congenital tracheal stenosis. Pulmonary artery sling is a rare form of vascular ring in congenital heart disease. The clinical case of a child with inspiratory laryngeal stridor associated with respiratory distress is presented, evaluated in another center where respiratory endoscopy was performed, observing extrinsic tracheal compression. Given the clinical suspicion of a vascular ring, CT angiography was requested, confirming the diagnosis of pulmonary artery sling.

He was referred to our hospital and during the surgical intervention a new respiratory endoscopy and tracheobronchography were performed, reaching the diagnosis of congenital tracheal stenosis, right accessory bronchus (pig bronchus) and complete vascular rings, both repaired in the same surgical act.
