Mesenteric and portal vein thrombosis presenting as acute intestinal obstruction. Tropical Gastroenterology. 2003 Oct-Dec; 24(4): 211-2http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/124370Acute bowel infarction is a major complication in patients with superior mesenteric vein and portal vein thrombosis. However, in some patients, sufficient collaterals can prevent acute bowel infraction. We present a case of mesenteric vein and portal vein thrombosis with intestinal obstruction due to acute bowel oedema and ischaemic adhesion without infarction or stenosis.engHumansIntestinal Obstruction --etiologyIntestines --blood supplyMaleMesenteric VeinsMiddle AgedNeovascularization, PathologicPortal VeinVenous Thrombosis --complicationsCase Reports
