Abstract
Barium esophagrams were obtained in two patients with respiratory prob lems whose underlying congenital heart disease was pseudotruncus arter iosus type I. The esophagrams revealed vascular indentations on the es ophagus, one posteriorly, and the other anteriorly. Both types of inde ntations were secondary to aorto-pulmonary communicating arteries from the descending aorta.
