    Abstract:
    A 69-year-old male was referred to our hospital due to extensive thoracic aortic aneurysm with right aortic arch and isolated left subclavian artery. We chose staged hybrid repair to avoid the risk of spinal cord injury and bilateral recurrent nerve paralysis. First, ascending aorta replacement with elephant trunk and reconstruction of the cervical branches were underwent. Second, we performed the thoracic endovascular aortic repair for aortic arch and descending aortic aneurysm. The postoperative course was satisfactory and, computed tomography (CT) showed successful aortic repair without any type of endoleak. He was discharged on the ninth day after the second operation. To our knowledge, this is the first report of surgical repair for an aortic aneurysm with right aortic arch and isolated subclavian artery.
