  • Title: Effects of experimental embolization of superior mesenteric artery branch on the intestine.
    Author: Cho KJ, Schmidt RW, Lenz J.
    Journal: Invest Radiol; 1979; 14(3):207-12. PubMed ID: 468491.
    Abstract:
    A primary mesenteric branch of the superior mesenteric artery was embolized with Amicar-mixed clots in seven dogs and with gelatin sponges in five dogs. All of the dogs embolized with Amicar-mixed clots survived the experimental period and no mesenteric damage was found with postmortem studies. Three of the five dogs embolized with gelatin sponges showed a local stricture within the embolized segment of intestine. Collateral blood supply to the strictured segment of bowel in these three dogs developed via arterial arcades, mural branches of the vasa recta and omental arteries.
