Abstract
We present the unreported case of a rare association of truncus arteriosus with the ductal origin of the left subclavian artery. Understanding and preoperative identification of these aortic variations are essential to guide optimal surgical management. In this study, the role of advanced visualization 3D modeling techniques in imaging these complex anomalies is discussed.
