title: [Extended small bowel resection with right hemicolectomy after massive superior mesenteric artery embolism, management in early postoperative period].
abstract: Intensive care management in recent postoperative period in nine patients with superior mesenteric artery embolism was provided. In all patients during surgical treatment an extensive resection of small bowel and right colectomy were performed. On the basis of physiopathological mechanisms of occlusional bowel ischemia and septic shock development the appropriate therapeutic procedure during pre and postoperative period was submitted. The authors suggest usefulness of the antibiotic prophylaxis in patients with high risk of measenteric embolism in order to decrease the dynamics of septic complications in the cases with bowel necrosis.
