Acute mesenteric ischemia is a life-threatening vascular emergency associated with a very high mortality rate. In the setting of necrotic bowel, the current standard of care requires a laparotomy with bowel resection and surgical or endovascular revascularization of the superior mesenteric artery. Unfortunately, mesenteric bypass confers high perioperative mortality, in some reports up to 45%. A hybrid technique that employs an exploratory laparotomy, catheterization of the distal superior mesenteric artery, and stent deployment across the atherosclerotic lesion was first described in 2004 for the treatment of acute-on-chronic mesenteric ischemia. This chapter describes the appropriate clinical indications, the technical aspects of performing this hybrid procedure, as well as the challenges and common pitfalls encountered.

A 50-year-old man had a mesenteric ischemia related to superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion associated with a type B aortic dissection. We decided to perform stent placement for the SMA and could avoid mesenteric ischemia. We think the stent placement in the SMA might be an option for the treatment of mesenteric ischemia caused by aortic dissection.

Background: Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) or mesenteric angina is a condition characterised by inadequate blood supply to bowel as a result of stenosis affecting   one or more of the three mesenteric arteries: the celiac artery (CA), the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA).Methods: Ten patients with significant lesion, treated with PTA and stenting were selected for study and were followed at 2 weeks, at 2 months then at 6 months after index procedure to see composite of symptomatic improvement, weight gain and revascularization.Results: On mesenteric angiography, significant ostial stenosis of celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery in 5 patients, 3 patients had significant ostial stenosis of celiac trunk and ostial stenosis of inferior mesenteric artery and 2 patients had significant stenosis of superior mesenteric artery. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and stenting was done, final result was good and there was no residual stenosis and dissection. After stenting patients were stable and pain free. There were no post-operative complications. Follow up was done after 2 weeks and 2 months and then at six months. There was no postprandial abdominal pain on follow up and almost all patient had gained weight in 2 months and on 6 months of follow up, no case of repeat revascularization was recorded.Conclusions: Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and stenting to mesenteric artery is good alternative management of CMI. In present series, all cases were susses fully revascularized without residual stenosis and dissection.

Treatment of chronic mesenteric ischemia has evolved over the last two decades. Endovascular therapy is now the treatment of choice for patients with lesions amenable to such an approach. Open revascularization remains the standard of care but is frequently being reserved for lesions containing intraluminal thrombus or severe calcification. In most cases, celiac axis (CA) stenting is not needed since revascularization of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) alone results in symptomatic resolution. This report describes a case of a patient with chronic mesenteric ischemia and diffuse gastric ulcers found to have a common origin of the SMA and CA that was treated endovascularly using a bifurcated stent technique.
