From: Many faces of acute bowel ischemia: overview of radiologic staging
A 33 y/o female with anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome with an extensive SMA thrombosis (arrowheads) and proximal jejunal necrosis (thick arrows) (a, b). She presented with recurrent abdominal pain 45Â days after bowel resection surgery. c Marked thickening of small bowel near anastomosis is depicted with mucosal enhancement (thin arrow) suggestive of early ischemic changes. Follow-up CT on day 57 (d, e) showed dilation of small bowel (asterisk) with pneumatosis (curved arrows) upstream to a late outcome fibrotic stricture (dotted arrow) that was confirmed at surgery
