Abstract

There are a number of conditions can impair the blood supply to the kidneys and mesentery, although atherosclerosis is the most common etiology. Additional possibilities include emboli, in situ thrombosis, extrinsic compression, dissection and fibromuscular dysplasia. The first step to diagnosing mesenteric vascular disease is to recognize that there is altered flow to the kidney or mesentery.
