AB  - Among  the  many  acute  abdominal  conditions  that  confront  the  general  surgeon,  disorders  involving  the  vascular  system  are  in  the  minority.  Yet  these  conditions  are  often  highly  lethal  if  undiagnosed  or  inappropriately  treated.  Because  operations  involving  vascular  exposure,  control,  and  repair  are  uncommon  in  the  practice  of  most  abdominal  surgeons,  a  straightforward  plan  to  identify  and  manage  these  conditions  is  required  for  optimal  success.  This  chapter  concerns  itself  with  the  general  diagnosis  of  acute  vascular  abdominal  conditions,  principles  of  vascular  control  and  repair,  and  a  discussion  of  the  management  of  the  3  most  common  types  of  vascular  emergency:  mesenteric  ischemia,  ruptured  abdominal  aneurysm,  and  abdominal  vascular  trauma.  Whenever  possible,  emphasis  is  placed  on  general  principles  that  can  be  applied  to  a  variety  of  conditions.  Acute  pathology  of  the  gastrointestinal  tract  that  results  in  hemorrhage  (eg,  bleeding  ulcer,  esophageal  varices,  bleeding  diverticula)  is  not  considered  within  this  chapter.
