      Abstract

      • 1.
        1. A case is documented in which there was complete occlusion of the left renal artery and partial occlusion of the right renal and superior mesenteric arteries, complicating extensive aortoiliac thrombosis.
      • 2.
        2. The patient presented with malignant hypertension, intermittent claudication, and abdominal complaints suggestive of “intestinal angina.”
      • 3.
        3. Treatment consisted of thromboendarterectomy of all involved vessels, following which the patient became normotensive and had cessation of the abdominal symptoms.
      • 4.
        4. The case is thought to be the first successful bilateral simultaneous renal endarterectomy, and the third successful case of superior mesenteric endarterectomy.
