Overview
Mesenteric ischemia is a type of intestinal ischemia primarily affecting the small intestine. It is one of the life-threatening gastrointestinal vascular emergencies which requires prompt surgical/medical intervention depending upon the underlying cause.
Common causes in the development of mesenteric ischemia can be divided into occlusive/non-occlusive, arterial/venous, localized/generalized and superficial/transmural.[1]
Risk Factors
- Mesenteric ischemia can be caused by any factor that can compromise the blood supply to the affected organ; either by reducing the perfusion or by promoting the formation of thromboemboli. It can be broadly classified as occlusive and non-occlusive.
- The most potent risk factor in the development of mesenteric ischemia is superior mesenteric artery occlusion.

|---|---|---|
| Occlusive | Embolic | Atrial fibrillation |
| Cardiac arrhythmia | ||

| Aortic atherosclerosis | ||
| Aortic aneurysm | ||
| Thrombotic | Advanced age | |
| Low cardiac output states | ||
| Peripheral arterial disease | ||
| Traumatic injury | ||
| Non-occlusive | Heart failure | |
| Aortic insufficiency | ||
| Septic shock | ||
| Vasoconstrictive drugs (digoxin,alpha-adrenergic agonists) | ||
| Cocaine abuse/ergot poisoning | ||
| Hemodialysis | ||
