    AbstractDeBakey type II aortic dissection combined with true aneurysm in the distal aortic arch is a very rare condition, and due to the complicated pathology, its surgical intervention can be difficult and risky. We report a case with this pathology in a 23-year-old man, who received a previous open heart surgery for ventricular septal defect at the age of 6 years. Aortic valve, ascending aorta and total aortic arch replacements were performed. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) including deep hypothermic circulatory arrest with selective antegrade cerebral perfusion was used. No postoperative complications occurred, and the follow-up examination at 6 months after the operation showed good therapeutic results.
