In Behcet disease (BD), vascular complication such as false aneurysm formation is common after surgical treatment in the arterial lesion, and the optimal treatment method remains controversial. Concerning the innominate artery aneurysm, lack of experience due to its rarity in vasculo BD makes decision making even more difficult. We report a ruptured innominate artery aneurysm in a 70-year-old man with BD, which was successfully treated by innominate artery stent grafting through the right common carotid artery, axillo-axillary artery bypass grafting, and right subclavian artery coil embolization. The patient is doing well without any vascular complications at eighth postoperative month.
