Abdominal vascular catastrophes, including ruptured aneurysms and arterial occlusion, lead to end-organ ischemia. This review covers these fatal conditions, focusing on abdominal aortic and visceral artery aneurysms and mesenteric ischemia.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Abdominal Pathology
  • Surgical Emergencies

Background:

  • Abdominal vascular catastrophes are rare but life-threatening emergencies.
  • These events often result in end-organ ischemia and significant mortality.
  • Key conditions include arterial aneurysms and occlusions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the pathological processes of abdominal vascular catastrophes.
  • To discuss the rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysms and visceral artery aneurysms.
  • To cover arterial occlusion (embolism, thrombosis, dissection) and mesenteric ischemia.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and synthesis of existing knowledge.
  • Discussion of pathological mechanisms.
  • Presentation of clinical scenarios.

Main Results:

  • Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms and visceral artery aneurysms are critical emergencies.
  • Arterial occlusion via embolism, thrombosis, or dissection causes end-organ ischemia.
  • Mesenteric ischemia can arise from low flow, venous thrombosis, and other causes.

Conclusions:

  • Abdominal vascular catastrophes require prompt recognition and management.
  • Understanding these conditions is crucial for general and vascular surgeons.
  • These pathologies represent a significant challenge in surgical practice.
