Abstract
The mesenteric resection in upper abdominal surgery is directed toward the primary pathology of the accompanying organ. The most surgical common procedure that includes resection of the mesentery is small bowel resection. Mesenteric resection is performed in these cases as an extension of treatment for ischemia, trauma, cancer, ulceration, bleeding, obstruction, or Crohn’s disease.
