    Abstract:

    Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of bare stent placement for the isolated visceral artery dissection. Methods: Within May 2008 to March 2012, 6 patients with visceral artery dissection underwent endovascular treatment with bare stents. Of the patients, 5 cases were superior mesenteric artery dissection (SMAD) and one case was celiac artery dissection. The intimal tears and dissecting aneurysms were covered and occluded with single or overlapping double bare stent placement, respectively. Results: All of the 6 patients underwent successful operation without any complications. In the patient with celiac artery dissection and one SMAD patient, the false lumen diminished immediately after overlapping double bare stent placement. In the other 4 patients, the true lumens remained patent and false lumens became occluded as revealed by CT or color Doppler examination 3 months after single or overlapping double bare stent placement. Conclusion: Endovascular management with single or overlapping double bare stent placement is a feasible, safe and effective approach for the visceral artery dissection.
