ABSTRACT
Several treatment options exist for acute intra-abdominal arterial thromboembolic events, including systemic thrombolytics, endovascular therapy, and less commonly surgery. A novel alternative treatment intervention for acute intra-abdominal arterial thrombus is the use of stent retriever (SR) devices, tools traditionally applied for treatment of acute vascular thrombosis in stroke patients. This brief report presents two cases of acute intra-abdominal arterial thrombosis successfully managed by deployment of SRs. Furthermore, it details the history, device mechanism, and design of SRs and describes cases in literature involving effective extracranial SR application.
