Abstract

An aortic neck with a nonconstant diameter represents a challenge for endovascular treatment. We report our experience in a patient with right aortic arch, aneurysmatic aberrant subclavian artery, aortic coarctation, and a precoarctation aneurysm that was treated with surgery and endoprothestic procedures in two stages.
