Zusammenfassung:Coronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are rare cases that generally present with ischemic symptoms. Although coronary artery bypass surgery is widely performed in treatment, endovascular procedures have also begun being used in recent years.

This patient was treated with a hybrid approach, very rare case in the literature.
