Abstract
We report a unique case of a 63-year-old female with extensive peripheral vascular disease who underwent a single-stage surgical repair of the aortic arch and descending thoracic aortic aneurysm utilizing the Jotec E-vita Open Plus hybrid stent graft system combined with antegrade deployment of a thoracic endograft via a median sternotomy.
