Abstract

We report a successful treatment of type A acute aortic syndrome (AAS)-associated aortic arch aneurysm in a 71-year-old man with major comorbidities. The ascending aorta was wrapped with artificial graft, and supra-aortic debranching was constructed. Then, Zone 0 thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) with plug occlusion of the left subclavian artery was successfully performed. The patient was discharged in good physical condition without any complications. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case in the literature of successful Zone 0 TEVAR after ascending aorta wrapping and supra-aortic debranching with type A AAS associated with aortic arch aneurysm.
