Abstract/Text
OBJECTIVE: To determine the cause-specific mortality from and incidence of transmural intestinal infarction caused by mesenteric venous thrombosis (MVT) in a population-based study and to evaluate the findings at autopsy by evaluating autopsies and surgical procedures.
METHODS: All clinical (n = 23,446) and forensic (n = 7569) autopsies performed in the city of Malmö between 1970 and 1982 (population 264,000 to 230,000) were evaluated. The autopsy rate was 87%. The surgical procedures were performed in 1970, 1976, and 1982. Autopsy protocols coded for intestinal ischemia or mesenteric vessel occlusion, or both, were identified in a database. In all, 997 of 23,446 clinical and 9 of 7,569 forensic autopsy protocols were analyzed. A 3-year sample of the surgical procedures, comprising 21.3% (11,985 of 56,251) of all operations performed during the entire study period, was chosen to capture trends of diagnostic and surgical activity. In a nested case-control study within the clinical autopsy cohort, four MVT-free controls, matched for gender, age at death, and year of death were identified for each fatal MVT case to evaluate the clinical autopsy findings.
RESULTS: Four forensic and 23 clinical autopsies demonstrated MVT with intestinal infarction. Seven patients were operated on, of whom six survived. The cause-specific mortality ratio was 0.9:1000 autopsies. The incidence was 1.8/100,000 person years. At autopsy, portal vein thrombosis and systemic venous thromboembolism occurred in 2 of 3 and 1 of 2 of the cases, respectively. Obesity was an independent risk factor for fatal MVT (P =.021).
CONCLUSIONS: The estimated incidence of MVT with transmural intestinal infarction was 1.8/100,000 person years. Portal vein thrombosis, systemic venous thromboembolism and obesity were associated with fatal MVT.
