Abstract:
Objective To analyze clinical characteristics of acute mesenteric venous thrombosis (AMVT) and its diagnositic methods. Methods Medical records of 16 patients diagnosed as SMVT in Friendship Hospital of Beijing during October 1985 to October 2002 were collected and analyzed, and its clinical characteristics and diagnostic methods were summarized.Results Median age of the 16 patients was 45.9 years, ranged from 19 to 64 years. Their main symptoms at admission were abdominal pain (100%), abdominal distension (100%), acute abdomen (100%), vomiting (75%, 12/16) and fever (75%, 12/16), with an underdiagnosis rate of 75% (12/16) and case-fatality ratio of 44% (7/16).Conclusions AMVT had several specific manifestations. Early clinical diagnosis for AMVT could be established on the basis of abdominal color doppler ultrasonography, diagnostic abdominocentesis, CT and selective superior mesenteric arteriography, and its case-fatality could be lowered with early surgical operation.
