Balloon fenestration of iatrogenic celiac artery dissection

J Vasc Interv Radiol. 2003 Apr;14(4):493-6. doi: 10.1097/01.rvi.0000064855.87207.c5.

Abstract

Iatrogenic dissections of the celiac artery during catheterization are rare complications. Herein a case is reported in which complete occlusion of the celiac artery occurred during transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and was immediately successfully recanalized with balloon fenestration of the intimal flap. Follow-up angiography showed patent celiac and common hepatic arteries with mild focal residual stenosis of the common hepatic artery orifice.
