| Core Tip |
Acute superior mesenteric artery embolism (SAME) has a rapid onset and progression and lacks specific clinical and biochemical diagnostic indicators, resulting in delayed diagnosis and poor prognosis. Currently, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is recommended as the first-line examination method for diagnosing mesenteric vascular diseases. However, when there is no clinical doubt, radiologists can easily miss SMAE with length ≤ 20 mm and in regions III and IV, affecting early treatment of patients. We found that a serum lactate level > 2.1 mmol/L and intestinal wall thinning on MDCT could independently predict the risk factors of death in patients with SMAE. |
