We report a woman with chronic severe stenosis of the left common and external iliac veins and severe postthrombotic syndrome symptoms. We successfully recanalized the stenotic segment via interventional radiology, which immediately relieved the symptoms. The interventional radiology computed tomography system was helpful for the safe and precise performance of endovascular treatments.
We encountered a case of complex isolated spontaneous celiac artery dissection with a patent false lumen with both entry and re-entry and extensive aneurysmal degeneration of the splenic artery. The dissection entry was wide and was located at the origin of the celiac artery. The false lumen extended to the distal part of the splenic artery, obstructed the true lumen, and was connected to the true lumen at the splenic hilum via the re-entry. Treatment was successful by stent-graft placement for the occlusion of the entry and embolization of the re-entry with microcoils via the false lumen of the splenic artery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
