AB  - The  hallmarks  of  acute  mesenteric  vein  occlusion  are  postprandial  pain  and  evidence  of  a  hypercoagulable  state.  Acute  mesenteric  vein  occlusion  presents  similarly  to  the  arterial  occlusive  syndromes  but  is  much  less  common.  Patients  at  risk  include  those  with  paroxysmal  nocturnal  hemoglobinuria;  protein  C,  protein  S,  or  antithrombin  deficiencies;  or  the  JAK2  mutation.  Thrombolysis  is  the  mainstay  of  therapy;  these  lesions  are  difficult  to  treat  surgically.  Aggressive  long-term  anticoagulation  is  required.
