PURPOSE: To present a case of symptomatic mesenteric bypass graft stenosis treated with Palmaz stent implantation. METHODS AND RESULTS: A 65-year-old man with a history of mesenteric ischemia and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion presented with recurrent symptoms 3 years after Dacron graft revision surgery for occlusion of a venous aorto-SMA bypass graft. Graft thrombectomy revealed a tortuous segment of narrowed graft proximally, and a Palmaz stent was deployed across the defect. Adequate flow was restored through the conduit, and the patient has remained asymptomatic for 2 years. CONCLUSIONS: Mesenteric ischemia is a rare and potentially fatal condition requiring major vascular intervention. Revision surgery may be avoided by angioplasty and stent insertion across flow-limiting stenoses, even in prosthetic grafts. |
