Case report

Endovascular repair of a complex symptomatic dissecting aneurysm of the superior mesenteric artery

Isolated dissection of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) is rare and remains the most common reason for aneurysmal degeneration of the vessel. The treatment is challenging and not standardized. We present the case of a 50-year old male presented with a 3.3 cm dissecting aneurysm of the SMA and epigastric pain of moderate severity.
