Abstract:
The endovascular treatment is the first-line revascularization technique in chronic mesenteric ischaemia. We report a case of reperfusion haemorrhage complicating endovascular repair of severe stenosis of the superior mesenteric and coeliac arteries' anatomic variant following abdominal radiation therapy. The haemorrhage resolved spontaneously after medical management, with successful outcome.
