Chronic stridor in a child: CT diagnosis of pulmonary vascular sling
Abstract
A child without chronic stridor and tracheal narrowing was considered to have a primary tracheal abnormality. Computed tomography (CT) identified an aberrant left pulmonary artery originating from the right pulmonary as the cause of the tracheal abnormality. The advantages of CT over conventional studies are discussed.
