The surgical managements for the complicated aortic disease is still one of most challenging fields for the cardiac surgeons. The endovascular stent graft procedure has been tried recently to avoid serious complications caused by traditional graft replacement technique. However, indications for the procedures or management methods for the complications have not been clearly elucidated so far. We report a case of successful management for the newly-onset aneurysmal dilation of the distal aorta after an endovascular stent graft procedure in a patient with acute aortic dissection type IIIB.
