A case of traumatic false aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta is reported. The aneurysm was caused by the inhalation of a needle into the left main bronchus. The diagnosis of a false aneurysm was made 42 days after inhalation. The aneurysm was repaired by direct suture without the need for circulatory assistance or a shunt. There were no intra- or postoperative complications.
