  • Title: Case report: stent placement in support of intravascular ultrasound in a woman with atypical lower abdominal aortic stenosis.
    Author: Kuribayashi S, Imakita S, Takamiya M.
    Journal: Radiat Med; 2000; 18(3):209-12. PubMed ID: 10972553.
    Abstract:
    Localized stenosis confined to the distal abdominal aorta near the bifurcation is an atypical manifestation of atherosclerosis, particularly in a woman. We report the case of a middle-aged woman who presented with a focal stenosis accompanied by heavy calcification in the distal abdominal aorta. The lesion was successfully treated by Palmaz stent placement under intravascular ultrasound guidance.
