Abstract
Aortic arch aneurysm generally requires an urgent treatment due to the risk of catastrophic aortic rupture. However conventional surgery for aortic arch repair still carries significant risks of postoperative morbidity and mortality, especially in patients with old age. In an effort to correct the aortic pathology while minimizing the risks of complication, we performed a hybrid technique which comprises the off pump arch aortic stent grafting in an 86-old male patient with an aortic arch aneurysm.
