Revascularization using arterial conduits for abdominal angina due to isolated and spontaneous dissection of the superior mesenteric artery.

We performed successfully total revascularization using arterial conduits (left radial artery and right epigastric artery) and present here the first report to our knowledge of a surgically treated case.
