Abstract

Spontaneous isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SISMAD) is a rare and potentially fatal cause diagnosis presenting with acute abdominal; however, because of its rarity, the pathogenic factors of SISMAD remain unknown and no clear cause has been found. Moreover, there is a lack of evidence-based treatment guidelines.

Keywords: conservative therapy; spontaneous dissection; superior mesenteric artery.
