Commentary: endovascular versus open revascularization for chronic mesenteric ischemia: power in numbers from experienced centers

[Management of complications after reconstruction of mesenteric arteries]

Because of the low ischemia tolerance of abdominal organs and the comorbidities of patients with abdominal ischemic syndromes, complications after the reconstruction of visceral arteries are often severe and associated with a significant mortality rate. The possible complications after interventions on the visceral arteries and their treatment are presented. Endovascular procedures have gained an increasingly important role in many primary interventions as well as in the treatment of complications.
