A 75-year-old woman was admitted with complaints of progressive portprandial abdominal pain and weight loss. A bruit was audible in the epigastrium. Angiogram showed narrowing of the lower abdominal aorta with complete occlusion of the celiac, the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries. A 6mm Gore-Tex graft was first anastomosed from the supraceliac abdominal aorta to the superior mesenteric artery. A saphenous vein graft was then inserted proximally to the Gore-Tex graft and distally to the celiac artery. The postoperative course was uneventful. During two years of observation symptoms have disappeared and patient returned to a normal weight.
