Abstract

We report on the occurrence of an identical form of interrupted aortic arch and ventricular septal defect in a brother and sister whose parents are not consanguineous. The first child died on the 7th day of life without surgery 3 years ago; the second underwent surgical correction on the 5th day of life and is doing well.
