Acute mesenteric ischemia: current multidisciplinary approach

Ajay Savlania et al. J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2017 Apr.

Abstract

The aim of this review was to describe and discuss the mechanisms of acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) and the rationale and conduct of currently available endovascular and open surgical techniques in its management. We also propose an algorithm to support the current multidisciplinary approach in decision-making for mesenteric revascularization to manage this high-risk entity.
