| Open Access | CLINICAL FEATURES AND CHALLENGES IN THE EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ACUTE MESENTERIC THROMBOSIS
Khakimov D. Sh., Ravshanov Sh. U. Ruziboev S.A. , Samarkand State Medical UniversityAbstract
Acute mesenteric thrombosis is one of the most severe forms of acute abdominal pathology associated with high mortality rates [1,2].
Objective: to analyze the clinical features and factors complicating the early diagnosis of acute mesenteric thrombosis.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of literature data and clinical observations of patients diagnosed with acute mesenteric thrombosis was conducted [3]. Clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and imaging results were evaluated.
Results: the leading clinical feature was severe abdominal pain disproportionate to physical examination findings. The main causes of diagnostic errors included underestimating risk factors and delaying the use of CT angiography [2,5].
Conclusion: Early diagnosis is possible with high clinical suspicion and the timely use of modern imaging techniques.
Keywords
mesenteric thrombosis, intestinal ischemia, CT angiography, acute abdomen, diagnosis.
