He denied any history of trauma, infection, or prior cardiothoracic surgery. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography angiography revealed a 46 × 36 mm pseudoaneurysm at the terminal segment of the innominate artery, containing mural thrombus and communicating with the parent vessel <i>via</i> a 5-mm neck (Figure 1(A-C); Supplementary Video 1). Although infective work-up was declined by the patient, the clinical and imaging features raised strong suspicion for an infectious aetiology. A hybrid repair was therefore performed: first, a right carotid-subclavian bypass using an 8 mm GORE-TEX graft, followed by endovascular exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm with a 12 × 100 mm GORE PLC covered stent. Adjunctive embolisation of the residual sac was achieved using detachable coils and a 14-16-mm Amplatzer vascular plug (Figure 1(D); Supplementary Video 2). The patient recovered uneventfully, completed a two-week course of oral cefuroxime axetil, and remained afebrile at three-month follow-up with complete resolution of symptoms. Infectious pseudoaneurysms of the innominate artery are exceedingly rare, typically arising post-trauma or post-surgery [1,2]. This case presents a rare instance of an innominate artery pseudoaneurysm manifesting with systemic inflammation in the absence of preceding trauma or iatrogenic injury. The adopted hybrid strategy-combining carotid-subclavian bypass, endovascular exclusion, and adjunctive embolisation-represent a less invasive yet effective option for managing such complex supra-aortic lesions, potentially offering durable exclusion while maintaining cerebral perfusion. The uneventful recovery and symptom resolution at three months support hybrid repair as a viable strategy in select cases, though long-term surveillance remains essential given the risk of late graft infection or recurrence.</p>","PeriodicalId":6979,"journal":{"name":"Acta cardiologica","volume":" ","pages":"861-862"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148315134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
