    Abstract:
    A patient with acute ischaemia of the abdominal organs after coeliac- and superior mesenteric artery occlusion is reported. Following vascular reconstruction and resection of gangrenous colon and ileum the main early postoperative problem was hepatic failure. A grave malabsorption syndrome developed necessitating periodic i.v. hyperalimentation. The patient showed no improvement of intestinal function and died 5 months postoperatively from peritonitis.
