Özet

Buerger's disease is an inflammatory occlusive disease which commonly involves medium-sized or smaller vessels of extremities. Mesenteric involvement in Buerger's disease is very rare. It can occur at any time during the course of the disease and presents with acute mesenteric ischaemia. In this study, a case of Buerger's disease with mesenteric involvement diagnosed before the onset of acute mesenteric ischaemia and managed endovascularly is reported. © 2009 by Verlag Hans Huber, Hogrefe AG, Bern.
