Type A interrupted aortic arch with a ventricular septal defect (VSD) in a 3-month-old infant was successfully corrected with the aid of profound hypothermia, limited cardiopulmonary bypass, and total circulatory arrest. The aortic arch was reconstructed by side-to-side anastomosis of the ascending aorta and the main pulmonary artery and then creation of a tube from the anastomotic orifice to the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) by using a superabundant flap of the anterior wall of the main pulmonary artery. The pulmonary arteriotomy and VSD then were closed. The operative field can be approached easily through a median sternotomy with minimum dissection. Cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography 2 months later demonstrated a satisfactory reconstruction of both the aortic arch and the pulmonary artery.
