About

Acute mesenteric artery thromboembolism(AMT) is one of the important causes of acute abdomen and intestinal necrosis. If the intestinal blood supply is not restore in time, the prognosis of the disease is often poor and even endangers the life of the patient. Through laparoscopic surgery combined with modern minimally invasive endovascular technology, the blood supply of patients' intestine is restored. Observe the perioperative vascular patency rate, all-cause mortality, and the probability of short bowel syndrome. Through the hybrid operating room, we want to seek a multidisciplinary collaborative treatment mode to improve the long-term survival rate of such patients with enough intestines and completely free from TPN, and improve the prognosis of these patients.

Full description

This study is a clinical cohort study; consecutively registered 30 patients with acute intestinal ischemia caused by superior mesenteric artery thromboembolism.

If all the radiography, physical signs, and laboratory markers hint at intestinal necrosis, exploratory laparotomy followed by enterectomy and thrombectomy is the first choice. If none of them hint at intestinal necrosis, endovascular therapy is superior. Laparoscopic exploration followed by endovascular therapy was performed for other patients, after that the intestinal blood supply was evaluated again by laparoscopy.

The main endpoints are the survival rate of bowel function preserved at 30 days, and the secondary endpoints are 30-day mortality, in-hospital mortality, symptoms-free survival rate, and rate of transition to laparotomy.

Inclusion criteria

• Patients with intestinal ischemia and acute abdomen pain caused by superior mesenteric artery thromboembolism

Exclusion criteria

• Those who have acute large-area myocardial infarction, large-area cerebral infarction, or have serious heart failure or sequelae of cerebral infarction within 1 month;
• Combined with portal hypertension, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, portal and mesenteric venous reflux obstruction diseases;
• Contrast agent allergy, severe renal insufficiency, and inability to perform intravascular surgery;
