Abstract
Pseudoaneurysm of the aortic arch is a rare entity, usually seen after cardiac operations or chest trauma. Here we report a 32-year-old man who presented 10 years after blunt chest trauma with a giant aortic arch pseudoaneurysm. He finally underwent surgical intervention in which the pseudoaneurysm was closed from inside with use of an inlay patch method.
