OBJECTIVE To analyze the epidemiology, associated risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, treatment, and evolution of patients diagnosed with superior mesenteric venous thrombosis (SMVT) at an university hospital in Madrid. METHODS Retrospective and descriptive study. We review the

Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) is a condition defined by a state of attenuated blood circulation in the mesenteric vasculature affecting one or more abdominal viscera, and is more common in the female and elderly populations. Amongst the many causes, it occurs most frequently in connection with

Chronic mesenteric ischemia most commonly occurs secondary to atherosclerotic disease of the mesenteric arteries. Patients are often older than 60 years and can present with postprandial abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, and significant weight loss. Symptomatic disease has traditionally been managed

BACKGROUND Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) is a life-threatening disorder, which is usually associated with stenosis or occlusion of celiac or mesenteric arteries. OBJECTIVE To review our experience and to assess short-term results of stent placement in stenotic mesenteric

A 71-year-old female presented with nausea, emesis, early satiety, and abdominal distension following revascularization for chronic mesenteric ischemia. Computed tomography angiogram showed gastric dilatation. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, small bowel follow through, and paraneoplastic panel were

Acute ischaemia of the small intestine is caused by mesenteric venous thrombosis in 5-15% of patients. The non-specific symptoms frequently lead to a diagnostic delay. A 30-year-old pregnant woman presented at the accident and emergency department with progressive abdominal pain, nausea and

Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a life-threatening emergency. The complications are high by the time of diagnosis in most cases and therefore only few data on primary percutaneous intervention with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and stenting in AMI are available. We present the case

A 40-year-old HIV-infected woman developed nausea, vomiting, and epigastric pain and died following her third dose (per study protocol) of interleukin (IL)-2. Her HIV infection was diagnosed in 1996. Her last CD4 cell count was 390/microL, and her viral load was negligible (as of November 28, 1998).

We report on a 32-year-old male patient who presented to the emergency room for abdominal pain associated with nausea and vomiting. The patient experienced these symptoms for the last 3 months and was taken in charge on an outpatient basis. Assessment in the emergency room showed hemodynamic

Inferior mesenteric venous thrombosis (IMVT) is a very rare disease of colon ischemia. We experienced two cases of IMVT that required operations. The first patient was a 74-year-old male, who was admitted to our hospital because of melena and diarrhea. He was diagnosed with IMVT by angiography. As

BACKGROUND Superior mesenteric venous thrombosis (SMVT) is a rare condition that carries high mortality. Very few cases have been reported of SMVT, complicating acute appendicitis. Early recognition requires a high index of suspicion and is crucial in successful treatment of such a life-threatening

Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis (MVT) is an uncommon cause of intestinal ischemia and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Patients with acute MVT often present with gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding and other unspecific findings making the diagnosis challenging. This condition requires

Six cases of mesenteric venous thrombosis have occurred in the metropolitan area from 1982 through 1985. The most common findings were nonspecific abdominal pain associated with nausea and vomiting, subjective distress disproportionate to the objective findings, and signs of decreased intravascular

BACKGROUND Although lipomas are common benign tumors of adipose tissue, diffuse lipomas involving the small bowel, large bowel, and mesentery are rare. Multiple non-encapsulated lipomas characterize diffuse intestinal and mesenteric lipomatosis. Intestinal lipomatosis can be asymptomatic or may
