Abstract

PURPOSE: To review the clinical features and management of spontaneous iliac dissections.

CASE REPORT: A healthy 60-year-old competitive cyclist presented with acute onset of short-distance claudication following vigorous exercise. Angiography showed a dissection flap extending from the right common iliac artery to the external iliac artery. An uncovered stent was placed across the proximal entry site but did not obliterate the false lumen; open surgical intervention was required.

CONCLUSIONS: Spontaneous dissection of the iliac artery is a rare but important condition to suspect in high performance athletes complaining of leg pain following exercise.
