Abstract
The innominate artery aneurysm is an uncommon entity. A 36-year-old man was transferred to our hospital because of incidental finding of right superior mediastinal mass. He had a history of blunt chest trauma due to automobile accident 16 years earlier. Computed tomography scanning demonstrated 5-cm sized sacular aneurysm with thrombus at the innominate artery. The prosthetic bifurcated bypass grafting from the ascending aorta to the right common carotid artery and right subclavian artery was performed under the moderate hypothermic cardioplumonary bypass. We report a successful surgical treatment for a rare case of the innominate artery aneurysm.
