  • Title: Retrograde superior mesenteric artery stenting for acute mesenteric arterial thrombosis.
    Author: Do N, Wisniewski P, Sarmiento J, Vo T, Aka PK, Hsu JH, Tayyarah M.
    Journal: Vasc Endovascular Surg; 2010 Aug; 44(6):468-71. PubMed ID: 20484067.
    Abstract:
    Retrograde superior mesenteric artery stenting (ROMS) represents a significant development in the treatment of acute mesenteric ischemia. Compared to traditional surgical mesenteric bypass, ROMS is a less invasive technique that avoids many complications associated with emergent mesenteric bypass. This case report illustrates that retrograde superior mesenteric artery (SMA) stenting is an option for the treatment of acute mesenteric ischemia for patients in extremis.
