We present a successful endovascular repair of a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) involving the celiac artery and the superior mesenteric artery. After the intentional occlusion of the celiac artery, an Inoue stent graft with a side arm to the superior mesenteric artery was implanted. Management of the visceral arteries in the endovascular repair of TAAA was highlighted.
