Abstract

Forty four cases (22%) of ischaemic bowel disease were found in a total of 200 resected specimens studied at PGMI, Lahore. Mean age of these patients was 35.88 years, showing male preponderance. The commonest presenting complaint of these patients was pain. The mean duration of presenting complaints was 2.69 months. Small intestine was the commonest bowel segment resected. Mean length of resected specimens was 28.75cm. On gross examination of the specimens, surface blackening was the commonest finding. Haemorrhagic necrosis constituted the commonest microscopic pathology.
