| Core Tip |
As a rare subtype of colon ischemia (CI), inferior mesenteric vein (IMV)-related CI often presents with nonspecific symptoms that delay diagnosis. In this study, we reviewed 11 cases from our seven-year experience, highlighting the predominance of middle-aged males, chronic disease, rectal irritation, thrombotic comorbidities, and continuous involvement of the sigmoid and rectum. Identifying both direct and indirect signs of IMV lesions on computed tomography is crucial for accurate diagnosis. Comparative analysis with arterial-related CI patients revealed substantial differences, further highlighting the necessity for prompt recognition and early intervention in IMV-related CI patients. |
