Abstract 

Cervical aortic arch (CAA) is an unusual malformation of the aortic arch. CAA with aneurysm formation is very rare. A 67-year-old female patient was admitted with a huge mass on left-side neck and 2 days of dyspnea. Investigations revealed a huge aneurysm on a left-side CAA. The aneurysm was successfully repaired a using thoracic aortic stent-graft. The patient's dyspnea was resolved immediately.
