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
OBJECTIVE Despite the continuing controversy of covered stents (CS) vs bare metal stents, the use of CS in mesenteric occlusive disease (MOD) has been recommended by expert centers. The aim of this study was to report midterm results with CS of the superior mesenteric artery. METHODS Between January 2014 and October 2019, patients with MOD with a severe atheromatous stenosis or occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery treated by mesenteric CS were included. Clinical presentation included both acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI), chronic mesenteric ischemia, and asymptomatic patients planned for major surgery. Demographics, procedure details, and follow-up data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. Study end points included primary patency, primary assisted patency, and secondary patency. RESULTS During the study period, 86 patients (mean age, 70 ± 9 years; 57% males) were included. Clinical presentation was AMI (n = 42 [49%]), chronic mesenteric ischemia (n = 31 [36%]), and asymptomatic (n = 13 [15%]). The technical success rate was 97%. A total of 96 stents were implanted, including 86 proximal CS (Advanta V12, n = 73; Lifestream, n = 13). The mean length and mean diameter of the CS were 31.5 ± 6.3 mm and 6.9 ± 0.5 mm, respectively. Additional distal bare metal stents were used in 10 patients (12%) to overcome a kinking (n = 9) or a dissection (n = 1) downstream of the CS. All postoperative deaths occurred in patients with AMI (n = 11, 13%). During a median follow-up of 15.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 15.6 ± 3.6 months), 12 patients (14%) underwent reinterventions for either stent misplacement (n = 3), stent recoil (n = 3), stent thrombosis (n = 2), de novo stenosis at the distal edge of the CS (n = 2), or gastric ischemia (n = 1). At 1 year, overall the primary patency, primary assisted patency, and secondary patency rates were 83% (95% CI, 83% ± 9%), 99% (95% CI, 99% ± 3%), and 99% (95% CI, 99% ± 3%), respectively. At 2 years, the overall primary patency, primary assisted patency, and secondary patency rates were 76% (95% CI, 76% ± 13%), 95% (95% CI, 95% ± 8%) and 95% (95% CI, 95% ± 8%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Mesenteric CS provide very satisfactory midterm results in patients with MOD, with an excellent primary assisted patency rate at 2 years, at the price of a significant reintervention rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study sought to define duplex ultrasound (DUS) velocity criteria predicting ≥70% stenosis in superior mesenteric artery (SMA) stents by correlating in-stent peak systolic velocity (PSV) with computed tomographic angiography (CTA) measurements of percent stenosis. METHODS A retrospective review of 109 patients undergoing SMA stenting between 2003 and 2018 was conducted at a single institution. Thirty-seven surveillance duplex ultrasound studies were found to have a CTA performed within 30 days of study completion. Bare metal (n = 20) and covered stents (n = 17) were included. Velocities were paired to in-stent restenosis (ISR) measured by mean vessel diameter reduction on SMA centerline reconstructions from CTA. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was generated and logistic regression models for ≥70% ISR probability were used to define velocity criteria in the stented SMA. RESULTS At a PSV of 300 cm/sec, the sensitivity is 100% and specificity 80% for a ≥70% in-stent SMA stenosis. At a PSV of 400 cm/sec, the sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV) is 63% and the specificity and negative predictive value (NPV) is 90%. A PSV of 450 cm/sec was consistent with the highest specificity (100%) and PPV (100%) but lower sensitivity (50%) and NPV (87.9%). One patient with a PSV of 441 cm/sec on surveillance DUS died from complications of acute-on-chronic mesenteric ischemia. CONCLUSIONS A PSV of 400 cm/sec on mesenteric DUS can predict ≥70% ISR with high sensitivity and should be considered as a diagnostic threshold for SMA in-stent restenosis.

Abstract
The coral reef aorta (CRA) is a rare phenomenon of extreme calcification in the juxtarenal and suprarenal aorta. Open revascularization has an overall in-hospital mortality rate of 13%. We present a patient with a suprarenal CRA with colon ischemia. She has an extensive past medical history of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting of the celiac trunk (CT) and superior mesenteric artery (SMA). The computed tomography angiography showed a CRA of the suprarenal aorta with occlusion of the CT stent and near occlusion of the SMA stent. Our case illustrates that the CRA in the suprarenal part of the aorta can be treated well by chimney graft procedure, although owing to lack of long-term follow-up, it might be reserved for high-risk candidates for (thoraco)abdominal aortic surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Mesenteric ischemia (MI), both acute (AMI) and chronic (CMI), is a challenging diagnosis to make, and early diagnosis and treatment are vital to improve outcomes. This manuscript summarizes the most up to date information on diagnosis and treatment of these disorders. RECENT FINDINGS There have been several significant advancements in the computed tomography (CT) diagnostic imaging as well as medical and endovascular management of AMI and CMI. In appropriate populations, endovascular interventions appear superior to open surgical management with lower mortality, morbidity, and cost of care. Efficient clinical identification and targeted testing are essential to diagnose AMI and CMI. Aggressive resuscitation and early endovascular (or in select cases, surgical) intervention improve outcomes in those with AMI. In those with CMI, considering this on the differential diagnosis and imaging appropriately can identify those that might benefit from intervention and halt progression to acute episodes.

Abstract
Chronic mesenteric ischemia is a rare and challenging clinical entity with non-specific complaints. It concerns mainly elderly patients with a diffuse atherosclerotic burden affecting other vascular beds. Most surgeons have limited experience with the management of symptomatic occlusive disease of the superior mesenteric artery or coeliac trunk. Last decades, the mesenteric revascularisation debate has also been implicated by the endovascular vogue. An endovascular-first strategy has been adopted in most centres, considering its less invasive character, with lower peri-procedural morbidity and mortality and more rapid recovery. The volume of mesenteric artery stenting has steadily increased over time. However, the long-term results of percutaneous mesenteric angioplasty and stenting are worse than those obtained with open surgery. Currently, many centres reserve open repair for cases in whom PTA failed. This extensive literature review aims to orientate decision-making and choice of revascularisation modality for chronic mesenteric ischemia, considering a significant patient heterogeneity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Atherosclerosis occurring in the digestive arteries is rare and often asymptomatic. When it becomes symptomatic, surgical care is indicated. Conventional procedures are giving way to improved endovascular techniques applied to the mesenteric arteries. The aim of this single-center study was to evaluate short- and mid-term outcome after endovascular revascularization of the mesenteric arteries. METHODS We report a retrospective study about patients who underwent endovascular treatment of chronic mesenteric ischemia between 2013 and 2018. RESULTS Our population consisted of 10 patients. The average age was 60 years [range 45-78]. Clinical symptomatology associated abdominal pain and weight loss. All patients underwent computed tomographic angiography (CTA). Severe stenosis (>70%) involved the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) in ten cases, the celiac trunk in four cases and the inferior mesenteric artery in three. The procedure was performed under local anesthesia in all cases. The superior mesenteric artery was revascularized in all cases and the celiac trunk in two. Transluminal angioplasty was followed by deployment of a stent in all cases. The postoperative course was satisfactory. Outcome was good with all patients being symptom-free at one month. Our average follow-up was three years [range 1-5]. All patients underwent a Duplex ultrasound every six months. Recurrence of symptomatology was reported in two patients at 18 months and 24 months. The first patient underwent CTA that showed superior mesenteric artery and celiac trunk stent stenosis. The patient underwent a second transluminal angioplasty with a drug eluting balloon. The second patient was admitted to the emergency room for acute mesenteric ischemia related to acute thrombosis of the superior mesenteric artery stent. Laparotomy enabled extensive resection of the small bowel and aorto-mesenteric venous antegrade bypass, but the patient died the same day. CONCLUSION Endovascular treatment has an important role to play in the management of chronic mesenteric ischemia. It is associated with a high rate of technical success. Patients should be carefully followed-up because of the mid-term risk of recurrent symptoms associated with intra-stent restenosis or thrombosis.
