Popis: Kommerell’s diverticulum (KD) is a rare aneurysm of the origin of an aberrant subclavian artery. Hybrid aortic arch repair for KD is being performed more often. We report hybrid arch repair for KD in a 63-year-old man with a right aortic arch and aberrant right vertebral artery, an extremely rare variant. We performed total arch replacement to completely reconstruct the five cervical arteries with elephant trunk to create an adequate landing zone, followed by second-stage endovascular stent-grafting from the ascending aorta to the proximal descending aorta.
