Abstract:
A spontaneous abdominal aortic dissection is very rare. We experienced this rare entity in a 37-year-old man. He was successfully treated by endovascular stent grafting, including coil embolization of the inferior mesenteric artery. The pseudolumen was completely thrombosed and it shrank without any endoleak 3 months later. This modality is thus considered to be a good alternative to open surgical repair, even though a long-term follow-up is mandatory.
