Intimal tear distal

to left subclavian artery

This dissection tear

leads to blood flow
pressurizing a false

lumen. This pressure

compresses the left
renal artery origin

leading to L kidney

ischemia.

The celiac artery was

perfused from the

false lumen, superior
mesenteric artery was

from both true and

false lumen, right renal
artery from true lumen

Left renal and left renal artery
hypoperfusion from false lumen. The

left kidney was small

and hypoperfused.
