Abstract

Endovascular management of massive bilateral superior intercostal artery aneurysms following late surgical repair of juxtaductal coarctation of the aorta is described in a 40-year-old male patient. Both aneurysms were successfully treated by coil embolisation without the need for further surgical intervention.
