Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Mesenteric ischemia is a frequent pathology with a variety of etiologies, the consequences of which can range from simple transient alteration of intestinal activity to transmural necrosis. Venous thrombosis is rarer (5% of cases of mesenteric ischemia), is sometimes not very symptomatic but can also be lethal, the clinical presentation is non-specific, hence the role of multimodal imaging in confirming the diagnosis. We present a rare case of mesenteric venous ischemia revealed a strangulated hernia in a 55-year-old man.
