ABSTRACT
Localized stenosis confined to the distal abdominal aorta near the bifurcation is an atypical manifestation of atherosclerosis, particularly in a woman. We report the case of a middle-aged woman who presented with a focal stenosis accompanied by heavy calcification in the distal abdominal aorta. The lesion was successfully treated by Palmaz stent placement under intravascular ultrasound guidance.
