Abstract
Ischemic hepatitis is a rare but serious complication of CA/SMA occlusive disease. Its occurrence is at increased risk after surgeries, where collateral flow is compromised. The endovascular treatment is currently the preferred approach to treat visceral arteries occlusive disease; however, antegrade CA cannulation can be tricky, and in an open abdomen scenario, retrograde approach from the splenic artery can be an additional resource. This case demonstrates the flexibility of endovascular techniques and that they can provide useful solutions even during open surgery.
