Irreversible Transmural Intestinal Necrosis in Acute Mesenteric Ischemia: Retrospective Cohort Study from a High-Volume Hospital.
Background: Owing to the low incidence rate and nonspecific symptoms of acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI), the identification and prediction of irreversible transmural intestinal necrosis (ITIN) and extensive bowel resection (≥100 cm) (EBR) are difficult and critical. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for ITIN and EBR in patients with AMI. Methods: The clinical data of 254 AMI patients were retrospectively analyzed. Furthermore, the incidence of ITIN and EBR were set as dependent variables, and relevant risk factors were screened using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The comparisons of surgical characteristics and postoperative recovery outcomes between the EBR and control group were also conducted. Results: The presence of hemorrhagic (odds ratio [OR] = 28.356, P < .001) or other types ascites (OR = 13.051, P = .003), peritonitis (OR = 8.463, P = .005), intestinal diameter >2.35 cm (OR = 5.493, P = .020), and serum creatinine (CREA) >95 μmol/L (OR = 4.866, P = .048) were identified as independent risk factors for ITIN in patients with AMI. In addition, serum C-reactive protein (CRP) >15 mg/L (OR = 38.023, P = .006), and CREA >100 μmol/L (OR = 6.248, P = .035) were proved to be independently associated with EBR for ITIN cases. Compared to the control group, EBR significantly increased the likelihood of requiring enterostomy ( P = .001), blood transfusion ( P = .002), and transfer to intensive care unit ( P = .016), while also prolonging the recovery time for intestinal function ( P = .014). Conclusions: The presence of ascites, peritonitis, intestinal diameter >2.35 cm, and serum CREA >95 μmol/L were independently correlated with ITIN for AMI cases, while serum CRP >15 mg/L and CREA >100 μmol/L independently increased the risk of EBR.
