This case report describes the endovascular management of a hybrid arch dissection stent inadvertently deployed in the false lumen during acute type A aortic dissection repair, resulting in renal and lower extremity malperfusion. Prompt identification and intervention are essential to minimize the morbidity and mortality associated with malperfusion. Various endovascular strategies exist to restore perfusion, and this case highlights a unique approach given the obliteration of the true lumen proximally and anatomy of the visceral ostia predominantly originating from the false lumen.

Pulmonary mucormycosis (PM) is a rare and life-threatening condition, most prevalent in immunocompromised patients. Early signs and symptoms are often nonspecific.
