Popis: Malperfusion syndrome is considered one of the most significant adverse events in aortic dissection disease and often requires invasive strategies to improve ischemia. We report the case of a patient who was presented with worsening claudication and leg rest pain due to malperfusion syndrome of type B aortic dissection. We successfully performed endovascular fenestration therapy to relieve the symptom by using a NRG radiofrequency transseptal needle (Baylis Medical, Montreal, Canada). We suggest that this novel method would be available for the patients with malperfusion syndrome of aortic dissection
