An 80-year-old man with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Postoperatively, the patient was hemodynamically stable without inotropic or mechanical support. Approximately 30 hours after the procedure, he developed severe abdominal pain, and a blood test result showed elevated serum lactate level. We suspected nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia and performed emergency selective angiography of the superior mesenteric artery, which showed vasospasm. We confirmed the diagnosis of nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia, and it was treated successfully with intraarterial infusion of vasodilators into the superior mesenteric artery.

Intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) is a promising biomarker for small-bowel ischemia including non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI). A 75-year-old woman with diabetic nephropathy sustained a distal radius fracture. Two days later, she underwent a brachial plexus block to facilitate orthopedic surgery, which resulted in hypotension.

Objective: Postoperative gastrointestinal hemorrhage (GIH) following mesenteric revascularization when performed either openly (OR) or endovascularly (ER) has been clinically observed but not reported. The aim of the study is to assess the incidence and predictors of GIH in patients undergoing mesenteric revascularization.
Methods: This was a single-center retrospective review of consecutive patients treated with open or endovascular mesenteric revascularization from 2009 to 2019.

BACKGROUND Non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) is difficult to diagnose and has a high mortality rate. We aimed to determine the qualitative and quantitative parameters of computed tomography (CT) that can determine patient prognosis and contribute to early diagnosis in order to reduce mortality. MATERIAL AND METHODS The biphasic CT images of 40 patients, mean age 72.
