Popis: | We report the short-term results with aspiration embolectomy using an ACE68 reperfusion catheter to treat patients with acute embolic superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion. Our study included 4 consecutive male patients ranging in age from 72 to 86 years (mean age 79 years). In all patients, the main trunk of the SMA was occluded. The technical success rate was 100% for all procedures. There were no major procedure-related complications. One patient underwent laparotomy with intestinal resection after successful recanalization. No patient reported clinical symptoms of abdominal ischemia at follow-up. Our short-term experience shows that percutaneous aspiration embolectomy using an ACE68 reperfusion catheter is an effective treatment for acute mesenteric ischemia. |
