Giant saccular aneurysm of the innominate artery

Abstract

We report a rare case of a saccular aneurysm of innominate artery without any apparent causative history. Although the treatment choice remains debatable, due to the poor condition of the patient, the lesion was excluded by using a balloon-expandable covered stent with a satisfactory early-term outcome.

Keywords: Aneurysm; Covered stent; Innominate artery.
