A 79-year-old man underwent 1-debranched thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for a saccular aneurysm of the distal arch of the aorta. Computed tomography performed 3 years after surgery revealed a significant displacement of the distal side of the stent graft and severe deformity due to displacement of the aorta. There were no obvious findings after aortic dissection. Endovascular treatment was selected, and surgery was performed semiemergency. Additional TEVAR was performed to restore the aortic shape and displacement to its normal position.
