Surgical treatment of the thoracic aorta combined with endovascular stent grafting may be an interesting approach to diseases of the thoracic aorta in high-risk patients. A patient with a chronic post-dissection aneurysm of the aortic arch and proximal descending aorta developed, after surgery, a perianastomotic leak of the distal suture of the graft. We successfully treated the leak by means of an endovascular stent graft procedure. These combined procedures may be useful to resolve surgical complications particularly in case of high operative risk.
