| Popis: | In a case of aortic arch aneurysm associated with adhesion to the surrounding structures, we devised an operative technique to avoid nerve injury during the surgical procedure. By preserving the adventitial layer of the aortic arch aneurysm to which the phrenic and recurrent nerves were attached, injury to the nerves was avoided, and the aneurysmectomy was completed with the distal anastomosis being performed intraluminally. |
