Abstract
The treatment of an aortic arch aneurysm in high-risk individuals poses a significant challenge. We present a surgical patient with a patent left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft and a large aortic arch aneurysm who underwent aortic stent-graft implantation and complete endovascular branching to preserve the LIMA inflow, with successful exclusion of the aneurysm. A moderate flow, proximal type I endoleak was observed after deployment that disappeared at 2-year follow-up.
