Coding Notes

This syndrome is a true compression of the trachea by the abnormally positioned innominate artery. The innominate artery can appear to "compress" the trachea in the presence of tracheomalacia but, in the absence of an abnormal origin and course of the innominate artery, this apparent "compression" most likely is a consequence of the tracheomalacia itself rather than actual compression by the innominate artery.
