ABSTRACT:
In the present study, to investigate diagnosis and
treatment of strangulated intestinal obstruction caused by mesentery vein
thrombosis on account of portal hypertension, the data in twelve patients with
this disease from 1998 to 2008 were analyzed. All patients presented abdominal
pain and vomiting and were confirmed strangulated intestinal obstruction caused
by mesentery thrombosis with operation. In this group, nine patients underwent
part of small intestine excision, and three patients underwent open-closed
operation because of the whole small intestine necrosis caused by intensive
mesentery thrombosis. Five patients died after operation. The diagnosis of
strangulated intestinal obstruction caused by mesentery thrombosis was
difficult because of the slow disease processes and severe outcomes. It is
necessary to take some measures to get over the dangers duration after operation.
