Stent Misplacement in Aortic Dissection

Imaging findings

Post-operative CT showed a stent placed in the false lumen rather than the true lumen, leading to compression of the true lumen and visceral ischemia.

Stenting into the false lumen of a dissection can result in catastrophic complications like mesenteric ischemia due to true lumen collapse.
