title: [Mesenteric venous thrombosis].
abstract: Mesenteric venous thrombosis (MVT) is a serious though rare abdominal disease. MVT often takes a subacute course with non-specific symptoms. The absence of simple and precise diagnostic tools result in delayed start of treatment and high mortality. Through information retrieval we have here given an overview of the incidence, etiology, pathophysiology, symptomatology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of MVT.
