Abstract
Mesenteric ischemia is a condition in which the amount of oxygen available is insufficient to meet the needs of the intestines. The small intestine, colon, or both can be affected by ischemia. The most common cause of occlusive ischemia is an abrupt obstruction of a major artery, which causes a considerable drop in intestinal blood flow. Early diagnosis is one of the most essential components in achieving a favorable outcome. The most prevalent treatment is surgical management. However, there are minimally invasive therapy alternatives that have been shown in observational studies. For arterial thrombosis, endovascular stenting is an option, and anticoagulation is an option for venous thrombosis. Endovascular aspiration, mechanical embolectomy, and local thrombolysis are all possibilities for patients with arterial embolism.
