    Abstract:
    A 46-year-old male patient with aneurysm involving the distal arch and the descending aorta was operated on successfully. Graft replacement of aneurysm with inclusion method was performed through median sternotomy with left pleurotomy. One month after operation, CT scan showed thrombus occupied between the graft and the aneurysm, and two years postoperatively, the aneurysm shrunk almost to normal size of the aorta. Therefore, our surgical procedure was considered to be proper.
