  • Title: [Surgical treatment through embolectomy of embolism of the superior mesenteric artery (author's transl)].
    Author: Rabitti G, Creazzo V, Bertoletti G, Valenti M, Chidichimo G.
    Journal: G Ital Cardiol; 1979; 9(9):1022-7. PubMed ID: 520731.
    Abstract:
    The Authors present four cases of embolism of the superior mesenteric artery treated surgically, with satisfactory results, through embolectomy with Fogarty's catheter. The Authors affirm the necessity of always following this type of intervention, given its simplicity and the high rate of mortality of non treated embolism. Some anatomical and physio-pathological considerations are remembered and diagnostic and surgical promptness are recommended.
