Abstract

We experienced a successful surgical case, who was a 52-year-old man suffered from acute abdominal organ failures and ischemia of bilateral lower limbs following aortic arch replacement against DeBakey IIIb-type dissecting aneurysm. We investigated the abdominal blood flow by DSA via true lumen, which seemed to be obstructed by the increase in blood flow to false lumen. Therefore, to increase in blood flow to true lumen, we performed an urgent infra-renal abdominal aortic replacement successfully.
