title: [Endovascular therapy of acute traumatic vascular peripheral dissections using self-expandable stents].
abstract: Percutaneous peripheral and coronary interventions as well as surgical procedures can be complicated by dissections and traumatic lesions of peripheral arteries. Posttraumatic peripheral dissections can be threatening for the extremities and often their management might be a challenge. Open surgery requires wide exposure and dissection of posttraumatic tissues. Endovascular techniques using selfexpandable stents gains popularity because of high efficiency, safety and good results. This technique is associated with decreased trauma, no requirements for anesthesia, short hospital stay. We present two cases of posttraumatic iliac dissections treated with self expandable stents.
