Colonic ischemia, also referred to as ischemic colitis, is a condition characterized by a reduction of blood flow to the colon (i.e., large bowel or large intestine). Symptoms can range from mild to severe, depending on the cause.
If your doctor suspects intestinal ischemia, you may undergo several diagnostic tests, based on your signs and symptoms, including:Blood tests. ... Imaging tests. ... A scope to see inside your digestive tract. ... Dye that tracks blood flow through the arteries. ... Exploratory surgery.
Ischemic colitis as a complication of colonoscopy is rare, but the incidence can increase when a prior history of intra-abdominal surgery, tortuous colon, longer procedure time or other risk factors of ischemia is present.
The condition can develop over time (chronic) or come on suddenly (acute). Sometimes, chronic ischemic colitis can heal on its own, but some people may still need treatment to prevent infection or colon damage. Doctors consider acute ischemic colitis to be a medical emergency that requires urgent care.
In mesenteric ischemia, a blockage in an artery cuts off blood flow to a portion of the intestine. Mesenteric ischemia (mez-un-TER-ik is-KEE-me-uh) occurs when narrowed or blocked arteries restrict blood flow to your small intestine.
Chronic mesenteric ischemia, also called intestinal angina, refers to episodic or constant hypoperfusion of the small intestine that can occur, typically in patients with multivessel mesenteric stenosis or occlusion. The clinical features, diagnosis, and management of chronic mesenteric ischemia will be reviewed here.
Superior mesenteric artery stenosis refers to any form of narrowing involving the superior mesenteric artery and may result from a number of factors. It can result in acute or chronic mesenteric ischemia.
