A case of a 56-year-old male blunt trauma victim with combined simultaneous ascending and descending thoracic aortic rupture is presented. He was successfully treated with immediate operation for the ascending aortic rupture and a delayed approach, with nonoperative stabilization and later repair, due to poor pulmonary status and a question in diagnosis, for the descending aortic rupture.
