Vascular Ring in an Infant With Cystic Fibrosis

Abstract

A vascular ring (VR) is a rare congenital anomaly that has variable clinical presentation, but may cause trachea-esophageal compressive symptoms. We describe an infant with cystic fibrosis and subtle trachea-esophageal compressive symptoms which were initially attributed to other causes, delaying the diagnosis of a VR.
