Vascular rings are rare congenital anomalies that primarily result from an embryological derangement of the paired aortic arches or branching pulmonary arteries. They make up &lt;1% of all cardiac defects. Double aortic arch and right-sided aortic arch with the left ligamentum arteriosum are the most common types, making up 85– 95% of cases, with pulmonary artery slings making up about 10% of cases. The prevalence is estimated as 59 per million children with very few cases reported worldwide. The clinical presentation is variable and this includes severe acute life-threatening episodes, recurrent apnea, severe respiratory distress, feeding difficulties persistent cough, wheezing, or stridor. In some cases, affected individuals may be completely asymptomatic. A high index of suspicion is needed to suspect and diagnose vascular rings as they are uncommon but surgically treatable. We present a case of a 5-day-old term neonate referred to our facility with respiratory distress associated with stridor which started 12 h post-delivery.
