We present a case of mesenteric ischemia in a 32-year-old woman. The rarity of this potentially fatal condition in this age group, the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with such a condition, and secondary causes that must always be investigated are highlighted. In this case, activated protein C resistance resulted in thrombosis of the superior mesenteric artery and subsequent bowel ischemia.
