Acute Mesenteric Ischemia [PDF]

Visceral Medicine, 2020
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Despite constant improvements in diagnostic as well as interventional and surgical techniques, acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) remains a life-threatening emergency with high mortality rates. The time to diagnosis of AMI is the most important predictor of patients’ outcome; therefore, prompt diagnosis ...

An Update on Acute Mesenteric Ischemia

Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal, 2022
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is an uncommon yet highly lethal cause of acute abdomen in the emergency setting. Computed tomography (CT) imaging, in particular a biphasic protocol consisting of angiographic and venous phase scans, is widely used to corroborate non-specific clinical findings when suspicions of AMI are high.

Acute Mesenteric Ischemia [PDF]

Archives of Internal Medicine, 2004
Acute mesenteric ischemia is a life-threatening vascular emergency that requires early diagnosis and intervention to adequately restore mesenteric blood flow and to prevent bowel necrosis and patient death. The underlying cause is varied, and the prognosis depends on the precise pathologic findings.

Revascularization for acute mesenteric ischemia [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2012
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) remains difficult to diagnose, carries a high rate of complications, and is associated with significant mortality. We evaluated our experience with AMI over the last 2 decades to evaluate changes in management and assess current outcomes.Data from consecutive patients who underwent arterial revascularization for AMI over

A novel hybrid technique to treat flush mesenteric arterial occlusion in acute-on-chronic mesenteric ischemia

International Journal of Gastrointestinal Intervention, 2023
Acute mesenteric occlusion is a life-threatening condition with a significant mortality rate and requires prompt diagnosis and revascularization using open repair, a hybrid procedure, or endovascular intervention.

Complicated idiopathic portal and mesenteric venous thrombosis: A case report

Acta Marisiensis - Seria Medica, 2023
Introduction: Acute mesenteric ischemia is a life-threatening condition that can lead to intestinal ischemia, bowel obstruction and peritonitis. It is predominantly caused by arterial occlusion (acute arterial thromboembolism or thrombosis); however, it ...

Hybrid repair for acute aortic occlusion using aortobifemoral bypass and AngioVac thrombectomy

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2021
Aortic thrombus with multilevel acute ischemia is rare. We report the use of vacuum-assisted thrombectomy of an aortic mural thrombus with superior mesenteric artery involvement causing bilateral lower extremity ischemia and acute mesenteric ischemia, in
