[Entero-mesenteric infarction: survival after subtotal enterectomy and partial colectomy].
A 55-year-old man, without any particular medical story, presents suddenly an increasing abdominal syndrome. The operation reveals an intestinal gangrene due to an acute mesenteric vascular insufficiency. The massive resection leaves 30 cm of the first jejunum anastomosed with the ascending colon. The patient has been attending follow-up clinic for the past eighteen months and, in spite of a "short bowel syndrome", feels well and works part time.
