Overview

Acute mesenteric ischemia can be grossly divided into three main pathologies, each of which have different risk factors. Occlusive arterial mesenteric ischemia has mainly heart related problems like atrial fibrillation, CAD and heart failure as risk factors. Occlusive venous mesenteric ischemia is associated with inherited and acquired hypercoagulable state. As for non occlusive mesentenric ischemia, it is associated with digitalis use and conditions associated with systemic hypoperfusion.

Risk Factors

Occlusive Arterial Acute Mesenteric Ischemia

Occlusive venous Acute Mesenteric Ischemia

Inherited Hypercoagulable State

Acquired Hepercoagulable State

Non Occlusive Acute Mesenteric Ischemia
