Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a serious and common clinical entity resulting in severe tissue injury. This study was designed to compare IRI in superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion and strangulation obstruction (SO). ⋯ Despite no significant difference between the two groups in terms of intestinal tissue damage, OFR-induced injury was higher in the strangulation obstruction group.
