Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2012 Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a rare cause of acute abdomen. Coupled with a high patient age, non-specific clinical symptoms and a significant co-morbidity the disease is still associated with a significant mortality of 60-85%. With a combination of preexisting cardiac arrhythmia and sudden abdominal pain AMI should always first be ruled out ...
