Abstract

AbstractIntestinal ischemia can result from various pathologic conditions. The presentations of ischemia can range from acute to subacute and mild to severe. Diagnosis of this condition may pose challenges, particularly in the early, potentially salvageable, stages of disease. This review offers an evidence-based approach to understanding the diagnosis and management of inadequate intestinal perfusion.
