Abstract
This case report describes the use of a customized branched device for the treatment of a distal anastomotic false aneurysm in an ascending to descending interposition graft in a 34-year-old Jehovah's Witness with congenital aortic arch interruption. A single branched customized stent graft device was used to successfully exclude the false aneurysm. The procedure was challenging due to the abnormal congenital anatomy. The planning, operative technique, and successful execution are described in this case report.
