Acute mesenteric ischemia

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2008
Acute mesenteric ischemia is caused by a critical reduction in intestinal blood flow that frequently results in bowel necrosis and is associated with a high mortality. Clinicians must maintain a high index of suspicion because a prompt diagnosis and early aggressive treatment before the onset of bowel infarction results in reduced mortality.

Acute mesenteric ischemia

The Japanese Journal of Surgery, 1988
Acute mesenteric ischemia is becoming an increasing cause of death in old patients with generalized atherosclerosis. Pathogenetically, this condition presents as poor splanchnic perfusion, with or without occlusion of the major visceral vessels. Because the patient manifests such nondescript abdominal pain and the physical examination reveals few ...
