Abstract:
Among the causes of acute surgical abdomen intestinal perforation and mesenteric ischemia are some of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Gastric perforation has a mortality rate of 20-30% and mesenteric ischemia has a mortality of 60%. The presence of both pathologies in the same patient at the same time is a rare association and very few cases have been reported till now. This association has been described in cases of polyarteritis nodosa. Here we are presenting our case in which no such vascular pathology was identified. We have tried to hypothesize the reason behind this rare association.
