Abstract:
:A 52-year-old man, without a medical history, presented with an incidentally detected large, intrathoracic aneurysm of the right subclavian artery. The aneurysm was characterized by the absence of a proximal neck and extended distally close to the origin of the right vertebral artery. We successfully excluded this aneurysm with a combined endovascular and minimally invasive open repair, thereby avoiding a sternotomy or lateral thoracotomy: a stent-graft was placed from the proximal brachiocephalic trunk to the common carotid artery, completely covering the origin of the right subclavian artery. The right subclavian artery was oversewn just distally to the aneurysm and revascularization of the right arm was assured by a carotido-subclavian bypass. Clinical follow-up was uneventful and radiological follow-up by CT-scan showed discrete, but progressive shrinkage of the completely excluded aneurysm.
