Acute mesenteric ischaemia is a challenging diagnostic problem with a very high mortality. Traditionally, laparotomy is required for definitive management. We describe a successful case of angioplasty and stenting of the superior mesenteric artery in a surgically unfit patient. We recommend that stenting be considered only in situations where the diagnosis has been made prior to bowel infarction, and if the patient poses a poor operative risk.
