Abstract
Thoracic aneurysms can potentially cause substantial compression of adjacent structures, creating substantial symptoms. We present a case of a 56-year-old woman with fatigue and dyspnea for 6 months. We discuss her initial endovascular treatment, which was insufficient to improve symptoms, and further surgical intervention was needed to solve the issue.
