Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a gastrointestinal and vascular emergency in which the detection of patients requiring intestinal resection is mandatory.Registered data of 55 consecutive patients admitted to our center between January 2010 and December OBJECTIVE
Our goal was to describe a single-center's experience in managing acute and chronic mesenteric ischemia with endovascular therapies.
BACKGROUND
Open surgical revascularization has been considered the historical gold standard treatment for mesenteric ischemia though it poses considerable
Nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) is not a rare clinical entity in intensive medicine, and it can be a consequence of several clinical or surgical situations. This pathology results from reduced intestinal microvascular blood supply associated with an acute inflammatory process, culminating
BACKGROUND
Although recognition of chronic mesenteric ischemia has increased in recent years, this disorder has continued to present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
OBJECTIVE
To examine the modern results of surgical revascularization for chronic mesenteric ischemia.
METHODS
Retrospective
This study aims to analyze early and late outcomes of the prosthetic bypass grafting procedure in the treatment of chronic mesenteric ischemia.Twenty-two patients (15 males, 7 females; mean age 60±10 years; range, 32 to 78 years) who underwent prosthetic Spontaneous isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SISMAD) is a rare differential diagnosis for patients presenting with abdominal pain. Due to limited cases reported, surgical management strategies are poorly defined.A 54-year-old man presented to We report the case of a 23-year-old woman who presented with bloody diarrhoea and multiple syncopal events. While the initial diagnosis clinically appeared to be inflammatory bowel disease, she was found to have a portal vein thrombosis (PVT) on MR cholangiopancreatography and acute intestinal
Mesenteric angioplasty and stenting (MAS) has surpassed open revascularization as the treatment of choice for mesenteric ischemia. Despite the lower perioperative mortality associated with MAS, the need for reintervention is not infrequent. The purpose of this study was to review the OBJECTIVE
Although the mainstay of managing acute descending thoracic aortic dissection (ADTAD) remains medical, certain patients will require emergency surgery for complications of rupture or ischemia. This study evaluates factors that affect outcome and determines which patients previously treated
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to know the prevalence, clinical and immunological characteristics and evolution of thromboangiitis obliterans.
METHODS
Between 1982-1990 41 cases of thromboangiitis obliterans were diagnosed from among 373,899 patients registered (11/100,000) according to the
BACKGROUND
There are a number of reports in the literature which describe the association of venous thrombosis with oral contraceptives. Venous thrombosis is a rare form of mesenteric ischemia which may be lethal if not diagnosed and treated quickly. Although the non specificity of clinical signs do
BACKGROUND
Thromboangiitis obliterans or Buerger's disease is a nonatherosclerotic, segmental, inflammatory vasculitis that is strongly associated with tobacco products and commonly affects the small- and medium-sized arteries of the upper and lower extremities. However, the disease can, rarely,
