A hybrid technique： intra-arterial catheter-directed thrombolysis following the recanalization of superior mesenteric artery in acute mesenteric ischemia

Acute mesenteric ischemia is a deadly process withoverall mortality rate of 40%. Acute thrombosis of an atherosclerotic lesion with previous partial occlusion isone of the common causes. Peri-operative mortality ofsuperior mesenteric artery （SMA） thrombosis is higherbecause of the difficulty in diagnosis,
