Core Tip	We observed overall improved survival for patients with superior mesenteric vein occlusion, however, for patients discharged alive, survival rates were higher in the case of non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia and superior mesenteric vein occlusions. The risk factors for mortality in all patients included age, disability, comorbidities and lack of antithrombotic therapy. Our data suggest long-term survival benefit in patients, suffering superior mesenteric artery thrombosis, who receive antithrombotic therapy following discharge. Future prospective studies should assess different regimens of antithrombotic therapy.
