Title: Percutaneous retrograde recanalization of the celiac artery by way of the superior mesenteric artery for chronic mesenteric ischemia. Author: Joseph G, Chacko ST. Journal: Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol; 2013 Feb; 36(1):259-63. PubMed ID: 22526103. Abstract: A 52-year-old man presented with recurrent postprandial abdominal pain, sitophobia, and progressive weight loss. Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) due to subtotal occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and flush occlusion of the celiac artery (CA) was diagnosed. Retrograde recanalization of the CA by way of a collateral channel from the SMA was performed using contemporary recanalization equipment. The CA and SMA were then stented, resulting in sustained resolution of CMI-related symptoms.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
