Abstract
Mesenteric angina has a high mortality rate. Occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery is the most common cause. Increasingly, it is managed endovascularly instead of by open revascularization. Despite the lower risk of complications in minimally invasive procedures, it is important to be mindful of long-term sequelae of minor complications. Patient education regarding risks and complications is paramount for better clinical outcomes. The risks of transbrachial angiography procedures are low. Postprocedural vigilance for interventionists and written educational advice to patients are paramount in all minimally invasive endovascular procedures, especially because most of these patients with a complication require urgent operative correction.
