Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia: Diagnosis and Treatment
Open accessAbstract
Chronic mesenteric ischemia is a rare condition, generally characterized by postprandial abdominal pain. Although chronic mesenteric ischemia accounts for only a small percentage of all mesenteric ischemic events, it can have significant clinical consequences. There are multiple etiologies; however, the most common cause is atherosclerosis. The diagnosis of chronic mesenteric ischemia requires a high clinical index of suspicion. An imaging study can confirm the presence of a stenosis or occlusion involving the mesenteric vessels in patients who are suspected of having chronic mesenteric ischemia. The diagnosis is usually late in its course due to the slow progression of disease and the abundance of mesenteric collaterals. Because of the extensive collateral network, usually at least two of the three visceral vessels need to be affected before patients develop symptoms. Treatment is necessary to avoid progression to bowel ischemia and infarction. Once a diagnosis of chronic mesenteric ischemia is made, treatment options include open surgical revascularization and endovascular revascularization.

Gadolinium-enhanced MRA is highly sensitive in detecting stenosis at the origin of CA, SMA and IMA.
“Gadolonium-enhanced MRA is highly sensitive in detecting stenosis at the origin of CA, SMA and IMA.”
From Ischemic bowel disease in 2021. (2021) · cites this paper as [81]
The Magnetic Resonance Imaging/MRA section (page unavailable) calls MRI/MRA a good noninvasive technique for evaluating mesenteric stenoses. It does not specify gadolinium enhancement or high sensitivity at the origins of all three arteries; it cautions that MRA may not accurately evaluate the inferior mesenteric artery. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMRA may not be able to evaluate the IMA well.
“One disadvantage of MRA is that it may not be able to evaluate the IMA well[81].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
