Description
<p>An 81-year-old man who visited a local physician for evaluation of hoarseness was admitted to our hospital for management of a thoracic aortic aneurysm. Careful examination revealed a thoracic aortic aneurysm, aortic regurgitation, and left ventricular aneurysm. We performed total arch replacement using a frozen elephant trunk prosthesis (combined right axillary artery bypass and coil embolization), aortic valve replacement, papillary muscle approximation, and a septal anterior ventricular exclusion operation. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful, and he was discharged on the 25th postoperative day. A Kommerell diverticulum is located at the origin of an aberrant subclavian artery, and subclavian artery reconstruction via thoracotomy is challenging in such cases. Although increasing numbers of thoracic endovascular aortic repairs have been performed in recent years, the procedure is associated with complications such as endoleak and aortic esophageal fistula, and the surgical risk-benefit ratio should be carefully determined. We report a case of safe non-anatomical subclavian artery reconstruction and coil embolization.</p>
