Treatment with direct thrombolytic infusion via mesenteric catheter and thrombectomy in superior mesenteric vein thrombosis due to synthetic drug use
Abstract
Mesenteric vein thrombosis (MVT) is a rare cause of acute abdomen and accounts for only 5-15% of all acute mesenteric ischaemia cases. MVTs are classified as either primary MVT, in which the underlying cause can not be determined, or secondary MVT, in which the etiology can be determined. Symptoms usually begin with nonspecific abdominal pain. Progressively increasing abdominal pain is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting and bloody diarrhea. In severe cases, sepsis and septic shock are seen. As the cases usually present with nonspecific symptoms, diagnosis and treatment may be delayed. Despite advanced diagnostic techniques, high mortality rates are seen. We aimed to present a case with a complaint of abdominal pain who underwent interventional thrombectomy and thrombolysis with the diagnosis of superior MVT.
