High Index Of Suspicion

Over the last decade, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has become an increasingly popular surgical procedure for morbid obesity. Moreover, post-laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy mesenteric venous thrombosis is very rarely reported. The presentation varies from mild non-specific abdominal symptoms to life threatening surgical emergency. Superior mesenteric vein thrombosis after bariatric surgery is a difficult diagnosis that needs a high index of suspicion. We report a case of thrombosis of the superior mesenteric vein, who presented as acute emergency to emergency room, shortly after sleeve gastrectomy. Patient underwent laparotomy and offered a resection of 60 cm of infarcted proximal jejunum with restoration of bowel continuity later. Patient subsequently recovered and followed several times in our outpatient and was free of symptoms.

Acute abdominal pain during pregnancy is challenging, both from a diagnostic and management perspective. A non-localized, persistent pain out of proportion to physical examination is a sign that advanced imaging may be necessary. Mesenteric venous thrombosis in a pregnant patient is extremely rare, but if diagnosis is delayed, can be potentially fatal to both the mother and the fetus. We present here a pregnant patient in the tenth week of gestation with classic clinical manifestations of mesenteric vein thrombosis and the corresponding findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT).
