A silent trio: Giant descending aortic aneurysm combined with coarctation and persistent left brachiocephalic truncus

Abstract We report a case of an undiagnosed descending aortic aneurysm, combined with coarctation and persistent left brachiocephalic truncus in a 59‐year‐old male. It highlights the necessity for aortic imaging, when facing a poorly controlled hypertension.
