Abstract
A 69-year-old man with previous ascending aortic repair combined with valve replacement for an ascending aortic aneurysm presented with a type 2 thoracoabdominal aneurysm and a 4.4-cm aneurysm of the right subclavian artery. Because of the anatomic location of the aneurysm and his previous operation, an innominate to carotid artery stent graft and a carotid-subclavian bypass and vertebral artery bypass were performed. Postoperative computed tomographic angiography confirmed good flow in the right carotid and vertebral artery, and the patient recovered without complication.
