Abstract
OBJECTIVE Retrograde open mesenteric stenting (ROMS) is an alternative to mesenteric bypass in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) with variable reported 30-day mortality rates. Large studies evaluating patient outcomes following ROMS are scarce. Our study aims to assess the results of this approach among patients presenting with AMI. METHODS We reviewed all the patients with AMI who were treated with ROMS (2011-2022). Patient demographics, presentation, operative details, and outcomes were analyzed. Primary end points were in-hospital, 30-day, and 1-year mortality. Kaplan-Meier estimate for 1-year mortality and primary patency loss were generated. Secondary end points included postoperative 30-day complications. RESULTS Between 2011 and 2022, ROMS was attempted on a total of 42 patients. The median age was 70 ± 15 years and the majority of patients were female. Pain out of proportion to the physical examination was the most common presenting symptom (n = 18, 42.9%) followed by peritonitis (n = 14, 33.4%). All patients underwent preoperative intravenous contrast computed tomography imaging. In situ thrombosis was identified as the etiology of AMI in 36 patients (85.7%). Technical success was achieved in 40 patients (95.2%). Conventional, non-hybrid operating rooms were used for the majority of cases. Revascularization of all 40 patients involved angioplasty and stenting of superior mesenteric artery. A single stent was placed in 35 patients (87.5%) and the reminder had more than one stent. Eighty percent of patients required bowel resection. A second-look laparotomy was required in 34 patients (85.0%). The mean operative time, including both the general surgery and vascular surgery portions of the index procedure, was 192 ± 57 minutes. Sepsis was the most common complication observed within 30 days, occurring in 8 patients (20.0%). In terms of mortality, 13 patients (32.5%) died during their index hospitalization, and 9 died (22.5%) within 30 days. On Kaplan-Meier analysis, the 1-year overall patient survival rate was 58.6%, and the primary patency rate for stents was 51.4%. CONCLUSIONS ROMS has an excellent technical success rate in management of AMI with lower than traditionally reported mortality rates for AMI. The dual benefits of rapid revascularization and bowel evaluation should make this surgical modality an alternative approach for treatment of AMI.

Abstract
Background Acute arterial mesenteric ischemia requires emergency treatment and is associated with high mortality rate and poor quality of life. Identifying factors associated with survival without intestinal resection (hereafter, intestinal resection-free [IRF] survival) could help in treatment decision-making after first-line endovascular revascularization. Purpose To identify factors associated with 30-day IRF survival in patients with acute arterial mesenteric ischemia whose first-line treatment was endovascular revascularization. Materials and Methods Patients with acute arterial mesenteric ischemia whose first-line treatment was endovascular revascularization because of a low probability of bowel necrosis were included in this single-center retrospective cohort (May 2014 to August 2022). Patient demographics, laboratory values, clinical characteristics at admission, CT scans, angiograms, and endovascular revascularization-related variables were included. The primary end point was 30-day IRF survival, and secondary end points were 3-month, 1-year, and 3-year overall survival. Factors independently associated with 30-day IRF survival were identified with binary logistic regression. Results A total of 117 patients (median age, 70 years [IQR, 60-77]; 53 female, 64 male) were included. Within 30 days after revascularization, 73 of 117 patients (62%) survived without resection, 28 of 117 (24%) survived after resection, 14 of 117 (12%) died without resection, and two of 117 (2%) underwent resection but died. The 30-day IRF survival was 63% (74 of 117). The 3-month, 1-year, and 3-year mortality rate was 18% (21 of 117), 21% (25 of 117), and 27% (32 of 117), respectively. Independent predictors of 30-day IRF survival were persistent bowel enhancement at initial CT (odds ratio [OR], 0.3; 95% CI: 0.2, 0.8; P = .013) and C-reactive protein (CRP) level less than 100 mg/L (OR, 0.3; 95% CI: 0.1, 0.8; P = .002). The 30-day IRF survival was 86%, 61%, 47%, and 23% in patients with both favorable features, persistent bowel enhancement but CRP level greater than 100 mg/L, no bowel enhancement but CRP level less than 100 mg/L, and both unfavorable features, respectively. Conclusion Independent predictors associated with 30-day IRF survival in patients with acute arterial mesenteric ischemia whose first-line treatment was endovascular revascularization were persistent bowel wall enhancement at initial CT and CRP level less than 100 mg/L. © RSNA, 2024 Supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
Even with modern advancements in the management of acute mesenteric ischemia over the past decade, morbidity and mortality remain high, and the best primary treatment modality is still debated amongst interventionalists. Traditionally, interventionalists have favored an open surgical approach but are now trending for endovascular interventions due to apparent reduced mortality and complications. Newer studies suggest hybrid approaches, and intestinal stroke centers may be superior to either strategy alone. This narrative review will explore the natural history of acute mesenteric ischemia with the aim of increasing interventionalist awareness of modern advancements in revascularization strategies for this devastating disease.

Abstract
Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) arises from the inability to achieve adequate intestinal blood flow after meals, leading to an imbalance between oxygen and metabolite supply and demand. The true incidence of CMI remains uncertain. However, the occurrence of mesenteric artery occlusive disease (MAOD) is relatively common among the elderly population. Delays in diagnosing CMI can often be attributed to several factors, including the variability in patient symptoms and the range of potential causes for chronic abdominal pain with weight loss. Mikkelson pioneered the introduction of a surgical treatment for occlusive lesions of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) in 1957. The inaugural performance of endovascular revascularization (ER) for visceral vessels took place in 1980. The literature has documented two types of endovascular revascularization (ER) methods: percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and primary stenting (PMAS). Despite the limited quality of available evidence, the consensus among experts is strongly in favor of PMAS over PTA alone for the treatment of atherosclerotic mesenteric artery stenosis. There are several key areas of focus for chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) treatment. Randomized controlled trials comparing different stent types, such as covered stents versus bare metal stents, are needed to evaluate efficacy, patency rates, and long-term outcomes in CMI patients.

Ann Vasc Surg 2023; 89:20-27. [PMID: 36404451 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2022.09.062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 08/03/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Retrograde open mesenteric stenting (ROMS) has become a mainstay in treatment of mesenteric ischemia; however, follow-up in contemporary studies is limited. METHODS A single-center retrospective review of patients undergoing ROMS from 2007 to 2020 was conducted. Demographics, presentation, and procedural details were reviewed. End points were morbidity and mortality, technical success, primary patency, reinterventions, and freedom from clinical recurrence. RESULTS ROMS was performed in 34 patients, 19 female (56%). Mean age was 71 ± 10 years. Eighteen patients (53%) presented with acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI), 11 (32%) with acute-on-chronic, and 5 (15%) with chronic mesenteric ischemia. Etiology was chronic atherosclerosis with/without in-situ thrombosis in 28 patients (82%), superior mesenteric artery dissection in 3, and 1 each with embolic, vasculitic, and nonocclusive ischemia. Four patients (12%) had prior mesenteric procedures (3 Celiac/1 superior mesenteric artery stent) and 1 had unsuccessful transbrachial stenting attempt. Technical success, defined as successful stenting through a retrograde approach was attained in 31 patients (91%), with the 3 remaining patients treated with transbrachial stenting in 2 and iliomesenteric bypass in 1. Covered stents were used in 21 patients (64%) with or without stent extension with bare-metal stents. Eight patients (23%) required thromboembolectomy and 9 (26%) underwent patch angioplasty. Thirty-day mortality rate was 35%, all in patients with AMI (10) or acute-on-chronic (2). Eighteen patients (53%) underwent bowel resection, all presenting acutely. Early reinterventions within the first 30 days were required in 5 patients (15%), including 2 redo ROMS with thrombectomy and endarterectomy, 2 percutaneous stent extensions, and 1 aortic septum fenestration with coiling of a jejunal branch pseudoaneurysm. With a median follow-up of 3.7 (interquartile range: 0.8-5.0) years, in patients surviving discharge, 5 required reintervention yielding freedom from reintervention rates of 87% at 1 year and 71% at 3 years. All postdischarge reinterventions were endovascular with no conversion to bypass. The overall 1-year and 3-year primary patency rates were 70% and 61% (primary-assisted patency at 1 and 3 years was 87% and secondary patency at 1 and 3 years was 97%). The freedom from symptom recurrence was 95% at 1 and 3 years. CONCLUSIONS ROMS carries high rates of technical success in patients with mesenteric ischemia, despite a high chronic atherosclerotic burden. Although mid-term patency rates are acceptable, AMI is still associated with high early morbidity and mortality, with high rates of associated bowel resection. ROMS is a valuable tool in the armamentarium of vascular surgeons.
