Resection and double ileostomy as an alternative approach for superior mesenteric venous thrombosis in poor risk patients: a case report
Abstract
An 85-year-old male with a sudden onset of abdominal pain was operated on under the suspicion of intestinal ischemia and was later diagnosed as acute superior mesenteric venous thrombosis (SMVT). The patient was successfully treated by resecting the entire involved bowel and performing a double ileostomy. These procedures are considered to be the preferred method of choice for improving survival in poor risk patients.
