arise from the ventral surface of the infradiaphragmatic suprarenal abdominal aorta

21
Q

True of acute occlusion

a. IMA and CA involvement are usually asymptomatic

A

AOTA

22
Q

What is the most commonly involved vessel in acute mesenteric ischemia?

A

SMA

23
Q

True about mesenteric artery occlusive disease EXCEPT

a. In acute embolic ischemia, the emboli typically originate from a cardiac source and frequently occur in patients with atrial fibrillation or following MI
b. Non-occlusisive mesenteric ischemia is characterized by a flow state in otherwise normal mesenteric arteries and most frequently occurs in critically ill patients on vasopressors
c. chronic mesenteric ischemia is a functional consequence of a long-standing atherosclerotic process that typically involves at least three main mesenteric vessels
d. NOTA

A

C. two out of the three
