Hybrid procedure to treat aortic arch aneurysm combined with aortic arch coarctation and left internal carotid artery aneurysm (Case Report)

Abstract: Aortic arch aneurysm is a rare condition but carries a high risk of rupture. We report one case of aortic arch aneurysm combined with aortic arch coarctation and left internal carotid artery aneurysm, which is extremely rare. Left internal carotid artery aneurysm resection and revascularization, carotid and carotid graft bypass combined with endovascular stent graft and embolization with coils were successfully performed. There were no any complaints and complications at 8 months follow-up. The follow-up CTA d… Show more

“…Conventional anatomical aortoplasty, which requires cardiopulmonary bypass or deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, would be complicated and carries a high mortality and morbidity risk. [ 4 ] Endovascular approach such as percutaneous balloon dilatation and stent implantation is not suitable in cases with extensive calcification and is associated with a high procedural risk of aortic rupture. In this setting, bypass grafting between the ascending and descending aorta, instead of aortic arch reconstruction, is also effective in relieving trans-coarctation gradient and improving systemic blood perfusion.…”

“…(5). However, as to a rare case with COA complicated by aneurysm of aortic arch and its branches, the former two algorithms has been indicated as a treatment of choice as evidenced by current guideline (6)(7)(8)(9). Endovascular reconstruction of supraaortic branches coexisting with COA has not been reported according to current medical library.…”
