Total arch replacement with bilateral extra-anatomical axillary artery bypass and frozen elephant trunk technique for Kommerell’s diverticulum

A Kommerell’s diverticulum is a rare congenital aortic arch anomaly associated with a high rate of aortic rupture or dissection. Therefore, surgical or endovascular repair should be considered early. A 64-year-old man was incidentally found to have an aortic arch anomaly, Kommerell’s diverticulum, w...

Sumario:A Kommerell’s diverticulum is a rare congenital aortic arch anomaly associated with a high rate of aortic rupture or dissection. Therefore, surgical or endovascular repair should be considered early. A 64-year-old man was incidentally found to have an aortic arch anomaly, Kommerell’s diverticulum, with a right aberrant subclavian artery and distal arch aneurysm. Hybrid total arch replacement with bilateral extra-anatomical axillary artery bypass and frozen elephant trunk technique was performed. This particular surgical approach would be a treatment option for any type of Kommerell’s diverticulum.
