The presence of critical coronary artery disease and concomitant critical limb ischemia represents a clinical challenge. Single‐stage operations for cardiac and peripheral revascularization can be an option in such cases. The "Süzer technique" provides a more physiological extra‐anatomical vascular reconstruction by using the descending thoracic aorta as the inflow source. This is an alternative to the more widely used technique of ascending aorta to bifemoral bypass and concomitant coronary revascularization. We report a case of critical limb ischemia with juxtrarenal aortic occlusion and left main coronary artery stenosis treated with concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting and descending thoracic aorto‐bi‐iliac bypass using a modification of the Süzer technique.
