Objective To investigate the early diagnosis and treatment of acute mesenteric arterial occlusion. Methods The patients with acute mesenteric artery occlusion treated at our hospital from 2008 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among the 18 patients, 14 had acute superior mesenteric artery embolism and 4 arterial thrombosis; 5 took superior mesenteric artery thrombectomy, 6 arterial embolectomy and bowel resection, 4 stent implantation through intervention, and 3 gave up the operation and automatically discharged. The case fatality rate was 50.0%. Conclusions The early diagnosis and early release of superior mesenteric artery embolism is the key to increase the cure rate.
