Abstract
Chronic mesenteric ischaemia (CMI) has a wide variability of clinical presentation, often mimicking other more common causes of abdominal pain. Due to this, it remains underdiagnosed and requires a high clinical index of suspicion, making early accurate diagnosis challenging. Timely radiological imaging is vital for detection and early treatment to ensure a successful outcome and prevent complications such as bowel ischaemia and infarction which has a poor prognosis. Here, we present a case of mesenteric ischaemia requiring bowel resection and successfully treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in the same sitting.
