Objective ― to present the clinical case of intestinal ischemia and the differential diagnosis of abdominal pain syndrome.

Material and methods. Patient S., male, 58 years old, was hospitalized in the Gastroenterology Department with complaints of abdominal pain, diarrhea, increased blood pressure, weakness.

Results. From the anamnesis it was clear that abdominal pain appeared a month ago. Inflammatory changes in the terminal ileum and colon were diagnosed, than peritonitis developed, surgical intervention was provided. These changes were regarded to be Crohn’s disease, but during computed tomography of the abdomen signs of mesenteric thrombosis were detected. For further treatment, the patient was hospitalized to the Surgical Department, mesenteric artery stenting and complex antithrombotic therapy were performed. In the postoperative period, the patient’s condition improved, the abdominal pain decreased.

Conclusion. Abdominal pain in patients with identified inflammatory changes in the intestine may also be a symptom of intestinal ischemia, which requires additional research methods when failure of conservative therapy.

Key words: intestinal ischemia, thrombophilia, abdominal pain.
