It was proposed the medical and diagnostic tactic in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia on basis of efficiency results of modern laboratory markers and instrumental methods. Positive laboratory D-dimer-test with computed tomography of abdominal organs or abdominal aorta and its branches CT-angiography led to diagnose thrombosis or embolism of mesenteric arteries at early terms and to reduce preoperative period. The authors presented the variant of isolated endovascular intervention in case of superior mesenteric artery thrombosis. This technique may be regarded as the method of choice in the treatment of patients with acute mesenteric ischemia.

Aortic dissection (AD) is a medical emergency that occurs as a result of a compromise in the structural integrity of the aorta. If left untreated, AD can have severe consequences such as organ dysfunction or even death. Malperfusion syndrome is a major complication of aortic dissection with mesenteric malperfusion syndrome being a rare but devastating form that can lead to mesenteric ischemia and is associated with poor prognosis despite timely management.

In children, 90% cases of intussusception are idiopathic and the remaining 10% are attributed to underlying diseases (most commonly due to Meckel's diverticulum, polyps then either duplication cyst or mesentery cysts, and rarely due to Burkitt's lymphoma). The occurrence of acute intestinal intussusception caused by Burkitt's lymphoma in children under the age of 5 is exceedingly rare. Burkitt's lymphoma presents with diverse clinical manifestations, often leading to the identification of an abdominal tumor in pediatric patients.

Quercetin is known to reduce blood pressure (BP); however, its acute effects are unclear. We investigated the acute effects of quercetin on BP, aortic mechanical properties and vascular reactivity in female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Hypertension was induced using L-NAME (40 mg/kg/day).
