Objective  To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of endovascular therapy for spontaneous isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SISMAD). Methods  The clinical data of 17 patients with SISMAD, who were treated at author's hospital during the period from March 2009 to May 2016, were retrospectively analyzed. According to the Sakamoto angiographic classification, patients were divided into typeⅠ (n=3), typeⅡ (n=5), and type Ⅲ (n=9). Three patients with type Ⅰ were treated with conservative treatment first, and then 2 were treated with endovascular therapy as the poor reaction. The other patients were treated with endovascular treatment right a way. Results  Conservative treatment was success in 1 case, 16 patients were treated with endovascular treatment, the technical success rate was 100%, one stent was used in 11 patients and two stents were used in 5 patients, and the blood in the true lumen of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) restored, no major complications occurred. Seventeen patients were followed-up for 3-36 months (mean of 19 months) and the followed-up rate was 100%, no abdominal pain occurred in 17 cases, CTA showed that no dissecting aneurysm was observed and the stents were patent of SMA. Conclusion  Interventional therapy is a safe and effective method for SISMAD.
