Many claudicants also have concomitant neurogenic aetiologies and revascularization alone may not be beneficial. These cases can prove to be a diagnostic challenge.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present a case of worsening bilateral calf claudication in a patient with previously asymptomatic coral-reef type aorta, anxiety, and spinal stenosis presents. Investigations were unable to differentiate between a neurogenic and vascular cause. The patient opted for aortic stenting before spinal surgery, after extensive discussion.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>Initial attempts at crossing the occluded segments were unsuccessful and the patient was offered the option to either resume conservative therapy, perform an open axillo-bifemoral bypass or repeat aortic stenting. After discussion, a repeat aortic stenting was performed. This time, the stenting attempt was successful, with completion angiogram showing brisk antegrade flow and strong distal pulses returned. Post-surgery, the patient's symptoms improved vastly.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Differentiation of vascular claudication from neurogenic claudication is diagnostically challenging. Decision to treat the aorta or the spinal issue first depend on the patient's constellation of symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Endovascular aortic stenting is well accepted with good results and lower morbidity than open surgery.
