Abstract
Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) repair is a high-risk procedure and thoracic endovascular stenting has encouraging morbidity and mortality. We report a case of Type III TAAA repair in a patient with previous abdominal and thoracic aortic surgery, using a combined surgical and endovascular approach. This innovative method is a particularly attractive option in ‘redo’ operations such as this since it significantly reduces the extent of dissection and avoids thoracotomy.
