ResumoHypothesis: Postoperative enteral nutrition may sometimes be responsible for severe complications such as mesenteri ischemia.Data Sources: Studies in the English literature were identified by a computer-assisted search of the MEDLINE database using the key words "enteral feeding OR jejunostomy" AND "complications OR mesenteric ischemia."Cited references of each retrieved paper were checked for relevance.Study Selection: All reports of mesenteric ischemia in the setting of postoperative enteral feeding were included.In cases of multiple articles from the same institution with overlapping patients, the most exhaustive article was included.Data Extraction: All reports were abstracted for number of patients, presence of preoperative comorbidities, development of perioperative hypotension or mesenteric occlusion, and outcome.
