Mycotic aneurysm of the innominate artery with supravalvular aortic stenosis.
A case of mycotic innominate artery aneurysm in association with supravalvular aortic stenosis has been presented with successful resection as the first such case documented. Blood flow was restored with low cervical autogenous internal jugular vein, as an end-to-side vein graft from the left common carotid and end-to-end to the right subclavian and right common carotid arteries. The future repair of the supravalvular aortic stenosis could then be more easily accomplished.
