Superior mesenteric artery embolism or thrombosis and nonocclusive ischemia are the most frequent causes of mesenteric ischemia. Symptoms out of proportion to the physical findings, leucocytosis, and metabolic acidosis suggest the diagnosis. A high index of suspicion, aggressive resuscitation and correction of metabolic derangements, early angiography, and operative intervention are necessary i...

متن کاملNon-Occlusive Mesenteric Ischemia
Introduction Non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) is an acute mesenteric circulatory disorder that, in contrast to mesenteric arterial occlusion induced by blockage of blood flow by emboli and thrombi, is not caused by organic occlusion of blood vessels. 1 Good outcomes in NOMI are observed with early recognition and treatment. 1-2 The early symptoms and characteristics of NOMI, however, ar...

Very mild right-sided weakness and occasional "pins and needles" sensations in the right leg were residual effects of a stroke the patient had suffered 9 years earlier. He also had hypercholesteremia, with a high low-density lipoprotein level and a low high-density...
