Innominate artery (IA) traumatic injuries are rare but life-threatening, with high mortality and morbidity. Open surgical repair is the treatment of choice but is technically demanding.

The case demonstrates the immediate usage of modern endovascular and surgical tools as part of endovascular and hybrid trauma management.
