A 62-year-old man was diagnosed with an asymptomatic intralobar pulmonary sequestration supplied by a short-neck proximal 57×25 mm aneurysmal artery originating from the mid-descending aorta. The patient underwent thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair; an aortic endograft was released to entirely restore the aberrant vessel. Then, pulmonary resection was performed. A triportal video-assisted left lower lobectomy was carried out. The thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair minimized the risk of bleeding and allowed a safe pulmonary resection with a minimally invasive approach.
