Hybrid repair of an acute type B aortic dissection with endovascular stenting and aortic arch debranching is an acceptable treatment in complicated type B dissection. We present the case of a 71-year-old man presenting with acute type B aortic dissection and concomitant aneurysm of the distal aortic arch, who underwent an uneventful hybrid procedure, which involved subclavian-to-subclavian bypass before endovascular stent-graft placement to the aortic arch.
