Open surgical repair of complicated thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs) has a high mortality rate, leading to an increased appreciation for staged hybrid repair. We report a case of abdominal aneurysm replacement with an artificial Y graft and total visceral aortic debranching through retrograde artery revascularization with a customized 3-bifurcated graft in a hybrid surgery for type II TAAA. Staged hybrid repair epitomizes the application of a dimensionality reduction treatment concept, offering considerable promise for addressing complicated TAAAs.
