Dissection occurring after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is associated with decreased vessel patency and an increased incidence of target lesion revascularization. Management of post-PTA dissection with the Tack Endovascular System (Philips, N.V., Amsterdam, Netherlands) has created an effective and durable treatment strategy for infrainguinal dissections. In this report, we discuss the indications and optimal methods for using Tack devices in post-PTA dissections.
