Interrupted aortic arch is a complete luminal and anatomical discontinuity between two segments of the aortic arch. According to the site of interruption there are three types of this anomaly. As the nature of this anomaly is life threatening and that the complex corrective operation utilizing CPB and/or total circulatory arrest is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, we present a technique of off-pump repair of interrupted aortic arch via left thoracotomy approach.
