As more challenging aortic arch anatomy is being treated using aortic stent‐grafts, there is an increased risk for proximal Type I endoleaks at the proximal seal zone or subsequent graft migration. We report a case of an endoanchor‐assisted thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair of a patient with an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) and aortic arch aneurysm who developed a proximal Type I endoleak in the aortic arch which was subsequently treated with endoanchors.
