    Abstract:
    We report on the case of a 35-year-old male who underwent emergency stent-graft placement in March 2007 due to a complicated type B dissection. One week after this procedure the patient developed critical visceral malperfusion. Subsequently, autologous iliaco-mesenteric as well as iliaco-hepatic bypass grafting was performed. At 6-month follow-up, aortic remodelling has occurred and visceral perfusion is regular.
