✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Acute mesenteric ischemia is a serious condition associated with high mortality. Multislice CT and magnetic resonance angiography have proved accurate in diagnosing this pathology, which requires a prompt diagnosis to start appropriate therapy. We report the case of an 87‐year‐old woman with acute mesenteric ischemia, in whom contrast‐enhanced sonography visualized the occluded superior mesenteric artery and the infarcted portion of the intestine. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
