For patients with severe aortic stenosis, efforts to bring treatment to symptomatic patients amid this pandemic might lead to favored use of catheter based management using minimalist techniques that do not require these elements. In this context, some patients with well tested surgical indications for valve replacement may be treated by catheter-based methods. It is important that outcomes for these cases are followed closely both at respective sites and in national registries. As we recover from this pandemic, surgical cases should once again be driven by multi-disciplinary discussion and clinical trial data, and not a mentality of crisis management. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.We hereby describe a rare case of coronary artery involvement in a patient with periaortitis which was mimicking an aortic aneurysm on computed tomography (CT). This case also highlights the role of CT in differentiating aortic pathologies to guide the management and also the importance of coronary evaluation in such patients. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.A 49-year-old man was admitted to our department 6 months after emergent surgery for type-A acute aortic dissection. A chest computed tomography-scan revealed a huge aneurysm originating from the proximal aortic arch, strongly adherent to the upper part of the sternum. Extracorporeal circulation was instituted first, and chest was reopened in circulatory arrest. The mass was a giant pseudoaneurysm originating from a laceration at the base of the innominate artery. Due to tissue fragility and complete distortion of the origin of right carotid and subclavian arteries, we performed an extra-anatomic ascending aorta-to-right carotid artery bypass, followe
