Biocellulose patch technique for fetoscopic repair of open spina bifida in twin pregnancy
ABSTRACT Objectives Twin pregnancy is currently an exclusion criterion for prenatal repair of open spina bifida (OSB). The main objective of this study was to report on our experience of treating twin pregnancies with OSB using the skin‐over‐biocellulose for antenatal fetoscopic repair (SAFER) technique.

Kommerell's Diverticulum Resection With Left Brachiocephalic Artery Transfer in an Adult With Tracheoesophageal Compression: Off-Pump Sternotomy With External Skin Cooling. [PDF]
Congenital anomalies of the aortic arch often lead to tracheoesophageal compression during childhood. Occasionally, symptoms may not emerge until adulthood, appearing for the first time at any age due to age‐related or pathological dilation of the aortic segments. The oldest patient described with symptoms at the onset was 76 years old.

An Unusual Cause of Dysphagia: Type II Right-Sided Aortic Arch with Kommerell's Diverticulum [PDF]
Kommerell's diverticulum is an uncommon aortic arch anomaly. Kommerell's diverticulum cases may be asymptomatic, symptoms of compression on the trachea or esophagus may be seen, and these cases also have a risk of spontaneous aortic rupture.

Short‐term outcome after the prenatal diagnosis of right aortic arch
Abstract Objectives To determine the proportion of children that require surgery in the first year of life and thereafter in order to improve the counseling of parents with a fetus with a right aortic arch (RAA). Methods Fetuses diagnosed with isolated RAA, defined as the absence of intra‐ or extracardiac anomalies, between 2007 and 2021 were extracted
