Lower limb ischaemia as the only or main clinical manifestation of aortic dissection is a rare event. Two cases are presented where this occurred resulting in attempted embolectomy before the correct diagnosis was made. The diagnosis should be considered when embolectomy fails to retrieve thrombus and when angiography demonstrates spiral lucencies within the lumen of large vessels or non-filling of major vascular branches. The value of pre-operative angiography is emphasized.
