Endovascular management of aortic complications in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) is uncommon. We treated a patient with MFS with a diagnosis of a 75-mm aortic arch aneurysm and uncomplicated aortic type B dissection using single-stage hybrid surgery combining total arch replacement with elephant trunk and the STABILISE (stent-assisted balloon-induced intimal disruption and relamination in aortic dissection repair) technique for complete aortic remodeling. The repair was successful, and the aortic true lumen was completely expanded. At 6 months after surgery, clinical evaluation confirmed the early success of the intervention. This type of surgery must be studied further before it can become routine treatment for patients with MFS but it proved safe and feasible.
