Abstract

Here we report a case of infrarenal abdominal aortic occlusion secondary to Stanford type A acute aortic dissection, which was successfully treated with percutaneous fenestration and aortic stent placement. Adequate flow to the occluded infrarenal abdominal aorta was not restored by means of percutaneous fenestration alone, so an additional procedure, aortic stent placement, was required to buttress the true lumen and fenestra. We discuss ischemic complications of aortic dissection and related percutaneous intervention and review the literature.
