## Abstract

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a genetic disease characterized by the formation of multiple cysts in bilateral kidneys. While renal complications are predominant, cardiovascular manifestations such as aortic aneurysms can also occur. Although there are a few case reports of giant aortic arch aneurysms, to the best of our knowledge, this has been rarely reported in patients with PKD. Additionally, the clinical presentation of the index case is unique.
