A ruptured Kommerell diverticulum is extremely rare. This is the first report of thoracic endovascular aortic repair without subclavian revascularization of a ruptured Kommerell diverticulum with a right-sided aortic arch. However, decisions regarding subclavian revascularization should be individualized based on the patient's anatomy and clinical presentation.

Background: Thoracic aortic endovascular repair (TEVAR) is the most commonly employed method for treating type B aortic dissection (TBAD). One of the primary challenges in TEVAR is the reconstruction of the left subclavian artery (LSA). Various revascularization strategies have been utilized, including branch stent techniques, fenestration techniques, chimney techniques, and hybrid techniques.

Background: An anomalous left vertebral artery (aLVA) can complicate aortic arch surgery. We examined the safety of various aLVA revascularization strategies during open total arch replacement.

Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 92 patients undergoing total arch replacement from January 2018 to May 2023 and identified 11 patients with aLVA.

Purpose: Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is a rare form of chronic vasculitis that is common in Asian female. As TAK predominantly affects young female with a longer life expectancy than those with atherosclerotic diseases, assessing the specific long-term outcomes of TAK treatment is important. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes and post-procedural complications of surgical and endovascular treatment for TAK.

Background: The optimal treatment of complicated type B aortic dissection (cTBAD) involving arch anomalies remain unclear.

Methods: We consecutively enrolled patients with cTBAD involving arch anomalies who underwent endovascular repair using a single-branched stent graft (SBSG) at our medical center between January 2020 and January 2023. The demographics, clinical manifestation, operation detail, and follow-up outcomes of these patients were retrospectively collected and analyzed.

We encountered a patient who had undergone a transposition procedure, which encompassed the performance of subclavian-common carotid arterial end-to-side anastomosis before a thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) when carrying out Stanford type B aortic dissection. A 50-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with a diagnosis of chronic Stanford type B aortic dissection that tended to expand. Transposition was performed in advance of zone 2 TEVAR.
