Discuss the normal anatomy of the mesenteric arterial supply and collateral pathways involved in chronic mesenteric ischemia using pictorial illustrations. Discuss the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and imaging findings in chronic mesenteric ischemia. Review the indications and strategies for endovascular treatment of chronic mesenteric ischemia along with current literature review of outcomes and complications associated with such treatment in comparison to surgical revascularization.  

Pictorial and multimodality imaging review of normal mesenteric vascular supply and collateral pathways seen in chronic mesenteric ischemia. Clinical consequences of mesenteric ischemia. Diagnostic imaging in chronic mesenteric ischemia. Indications and contraindications for endovascular treatment. Strategies for endovascular treatment (both stent placement and angioplasty). Outcomes and complications associated with endovascular treatment in comparison to surgical revascularization.
