The Use of AngioVac for Symptomatic Aortic Thrombus Complicated by Mesenteric Ischemia.
Annals of Vascular Surgery 2016 April
Aortic thrombus complicated by mesenteric ischemia is a rare but rather challenging entity. With the recent advancements of endovascular techniques, there is a trend to replace the traditional open surgery with an endovascular approach. We report a patient with paravisceral aortic thrombus involving the celiac artery and superior mesenteric artery (SMA). The patient was complaining of worsening abdominal pain, with clinical findings of leukocytosis, normal lactate, and diagnostic laparoscopy demonstrating a segment of threatened jejunum. We describe the novel use of vacuum-assisted suction filtration device in combination with over-the-wire thrombectomy and stenting to successfully restore blood flow within the SMA. The patient had resolution of her symptoms with improved blood flow to the bowel and no need for resection.
