Severe limb ischemia related to previous abdominal aortic aneurysm repair induced by acute aortic dissection.

چکیده
We described the first case of limb ischemia induced by acute aortic dissection in the patient with previous abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. A 56-year-old male was referred for severe limb ischemia. He underwent AAA repair one month before the referral. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed Stanford type B aortic dissection extended to the proximal anastomosis site of the AAA repair. The false lumen made the complete interruption of antegrade blood flow at the proximal anastomosis site of the AAA repair.
