Abstract
|
|
|
Spontaneous infrarenal abdominal aortic dissection (SIAAD) is a rare entity with various clinical presentations. We recently encountered the even rarer condition of a female patient suffering from chronic SIAAD with multiple intimal flaps and prominent lumbar artery collaterals; this all caused stenotic changes of the infrarenal abdominal aorta and produced progressive lower extremity pain and claudication in both her legs. This patient¡¯s condition was successfully managed by primary stent placement followed by balloon angioplasty.
