ER of CFA and concomitant arterial lesions seems to be a safe technique with acceptable clinical outcome at 1 year.

Spontaneous dissections of the superior mesenteric artery are exceptional events because only 26 reports have been published. We present a new case, revealed with an acute abdominal syndrome. Computed tomographic angiography and arteriography allowed a rapid diagnosis and urgent surgical intervention. Progress in imagery makes diagnosis and follow-up examination easier. Surgery is indicated for acute symptomatic forms with suspicion of mesenteric ischemia. In the other cases, a simple follow-up examination may be appropriate.

Primary stenting of TASC C and D lesions appears to be safe and efficient given the high-sustained clinical improvement and the low rate of ISR observed in our study. Endovascular treatment of such long and severe lesions exposes to high rate of stent fractures, which should not be a concern given their low clinical impact.
