Abstrakt:	We have presented a case of a ruptured descending aortic aneurysm that was accompanied by extreme tortuosity and a pseudocoarctation at the level of the ligamentum arteriosum. We performed successful endovascular repair, covering the left subclavian artery, using a transapical-to-femoral artery (through-and-through) guidewire technique to overcome the tortuosity, with the option to perform balloon angioplasty in the case of an increased gradient over the coarctation. In the present case report, we have underlined the role of close collaborations with aortic expertise centers. (© 2022 The Author(s).)
