We present a case of a man with concentric significant stenoses in the superior mesenteric artery and the celiac trunk, in whom percutaneous transluminal angioplasty did not provide sufficient technical result. We report the successful use of balloon expandable Perflex stent to treat superior mesenteric artery stenosis.
