Hybrid Repair of Kommerell’s Diverticulum with Embolization of Aberrant Left Subclavian Artery

2020 
An asymptomatic 70-year-old man presented with Kommerell's diverticulum (KD) and an aberrant left subclavian artery. Computed tomography revealed a KD diameter of 53 mm, severe aortic arch angulation, and no landing zone for thoracic endovascular aortic repair from the arch vessels to the diverticulum. We performed single-stage hybrid repair of KD of the right aortic arch, left carotid-left subclavian artery bypass, and embolization of the subclavian artery, followed by replacement of the descending aorta through deep hypothermic circulatory arrest via right thoracotomy. He was discharged home without any symptoms and remained uneventful at 1 year after the operation.
