Abstract
Introduction: Isolated spontaneous iliac artery dissection is a rare event that is usually linked to connective disorders. There is no established consensus yet on treatment modality. Case report: we report the case of a 44 years old patient with no history of vascular diseases or trauma who was admitted in our institution for a spontaneous dissection of the right external iliac artery. Conclusion: management of spontaneous iliac artery dissection is not well defined. In fact, patients could be safely managed with medical therapy in the absence of signs of complications. Endovascular and open repair are reserved for patients with complications like limb ischemia or imminent artery rupture.
