Chronic mesenteric ischemia is a serious vascular disease that progresses with acute mesenteric ischemia, along with high mortality. Elective intervention has been shown to prevent this progression and improve symptoms. Controversy remains about whether antegrade or retrograde mesenteric bypass has better outcomes and whether restoration of flow to a single vessel versus multiple mesenteric vessels should be performed. This study reports on our experience using an antegrade prosthetic bypass graft to treat chronic occlusions of the celiac trunk, superior mesenteric artery, and inferior mesenteric artery at their origins, all of which result in visceral ischemia.
