An elderly woman developed chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) due to severe stenosis of the celiac artery and chronic total occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). Stenting of the celiac artery resulted in resolution of CMI, but symptoms recurred 4 months later due to restenosis. We report successful sustained resolution of CMI after percutaneous retrograde revascularization of the SMA via the celiac artery. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
