Abstract:
We describe herein a 41-year-old man who complained of abdominal pain. He underwent surgery, and the diagnosis of mesenteric venous thrombosis was made. The small intestine, mainly the jejunum, presented necrosis on laparotomy, and a 155-cm long segment of it was successfully resected. Anticoagulant therapy was initiated postoperatively, and he is well at present.
