Mesenteric Ischemia in the Elderly
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 2007Intestinal ischemia is a relatively common disorder in the elderly and, if not treated promptly, still carries a high morbidity and mortality rate. High degree of clinical suspicion is of paramount importance in diagnosis, because there is no specific laboratory test available and physical examination findings may be subtle. Once the diagnosis is made,

Mesenteric ischemia is a difficult clinical diagnosis that requires a high index of clinical suspicion because the clinical and imaging features of intestinal ischemia and infarction overlap with many other intestinal disorders, and patients who have mesenteric ischemia often have coexisting diseases.

Management of Mesenteric Ischemia
Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2014Acute mesenteric ischemia is associated with a high mortality rate and requires emergent evaluation and surgical management. However, patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia can undergo either surgical or endovascular revascularization. Review of recent medical literature suggests lower rates of mortality and complications after endovascular ...

The morbidity and mortality of acute mesenteric ischemia have remained high over the past 30 years despite heightened sensitivity to the diagnosis. Because the duration of the ischemic episode is the most significant determinant of outcome, an aggressive diagnostic and treatment protocol must be maintained. Although this stance may precipitate a number

Acute mesenteric ischemia is a life-threatening condition that occurs when an abrupt decrease in blood flow results in inadequate supply to the intestines, leading to bowel infarction. Etiologies may include arterial embolus, arterial or venous thrombosis, and nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia.

Mesenteric Ischemia in the Elderly
Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1999Mesenteric ischemia is a well-recognized clinical entity among the elderly. Although first described more than 500 years ago, advances in both diagnostic and treatment regimens only minimally have improved on the bleak morbidity and mortality rates associated with this disease.

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.

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2005
Clinical manifestations of chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) can range from vague abdominal pain to debilitating states of intestinal angina resulting in significant weight loss and morbidity. Once the condition has been diagnosed, treatment usually is elective, except in rare cases of rapid progression to acute mesenteric ischemia.

Nonocclusive Mesenteric Ischemia
Annual Review of Medicine, 1991Intestinal ischemia produces a broad spectrum of disorders, the end result of which depends on many variables, including the mechanism of ischemia (embolus, spasm, or thrombosis), the vessel involved (artery or vein), the onset and duration of the injury (acute or chronic), and the area and length of bowel affected (small intestine or colon).

Acute mesenteric ischemia represents one to two percent of all gastrointestinal illnesses. There are three possible causes of acute arterial mesenteric ischemia: embolism, thrombosis, and nonocclusive mesenteric insufficiency. The key to early diagnosis is a high index of suspicion.
