    Abstract:
    In the period from 1984 to 2010 operations were made on 41 patients aged from 36 to 76 years with chronic ischemia of digestive organs (CIDO), infarction of the small intestine was determined in 7 of them mainly due to atherosclerotic injury of the celiac trunk (CT) and/or superior mesenteric artery (SMA). In 41 patients antegrade (15) or retrograde (26) shunting of CT and/or SMA were fulfilled with synthetic prostheses in combination with resection of the small intestine in 7 patients, with lethal outcome in 2 of them only. No prosthesis infection was noted. Lethality in early terms was 17.1% mainly at the early stage of the work. Observations during the period from one month to 24 years were followed up in 26 (63.4%) patients. Their state remains satisfactory, the shunts are patent. In treatment of patients with CIDO the antegrade and retrograde shunting of CT and/or SMA are shown to be effective methods.
