Abstract

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the surgical procedures, outcomes, and prognostic factors in patients with ischemic heart disease who were operated on due to nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI).

Material and methods: This research contains all patients diagnosed with congestive heart failure and NOMI between January 2011 to January 2020. The patients who had angiography or CT that showed occlusion of more than 50% in any of the main branches of the mesenteric artery or patients who presented with symptoms in correlation with a total occlusion were excluded from the study. Patients who underwent coronary heart surgery but were not diagnosed with congestive heart failure and those with atrial fibrillation also were excluded from the study. Patients divided into two groups, according to a medical database.

Results: A significant difference was found between the surviving and non-survivor groups in minutes, in terms of median time to segmenter intestinal resection (P = 0.042).

Conclusion: An early diagnosis and surgical segmental intestinal resection before peritonitis worsens can be the key to better prognosis for NOMI patients.
