We present a rare case of D‐transposition of the great arteries (D‐TGA) and double aortic arch (DAA). The anatomy was prospectively and preoperatively diagnosed by echocardiography and confirmed by ultra‐fast computed tomography. The patient underwent successful arterial switch operation and division of the vascular ring at a single procedure.
