Abstract
Innominate artery injury by blunt chest trauma is rarely reported. This report describes a 40-year-old male who had innominate artery dissection and pseudoaneurysm caused by blunt chest trauma and was treated successfully by ascending aorta to innominate artery bypass graft. The patient recovered without any complications and was discharged one week after the operation.
