Abstract

The role of intraoperative sonography is to detect and prompt revision of technical defects that may adversely affect results. Our objective is to describe the technique and illustrate normal and abnormal findings in intraoperative sonography of mesenteric revascularization. An abnormality on a gray-scale image associated with hemodynamic changes is a significant finding. Awareness and recognition of major abnormalities should prompt immediate surgical revision and improved outcome.
