ABSTRACT
Mesenteric vein thrombosis is a rare disease that can be fatal, as it can cause ischemia or infarction of bowels. The mortality rate is 13~50%. The predisposing factors of mesenteric vein thrombosis are numerous, and one of them is diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is a rare disease and mesenteric vein thrombosis caused by diverticulitis has not been reported in Korea. We report a patient with superior mesenteric vein thrombosis associated with diverticulitis of ascending colon, and it was diagnosed by computed tomography and barium enema. After antibiotic therapy, the thrombosis was resolved and the patient was completely recovered.
