Abstract: Idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis is a rare intestinal ischemic disease with non-specific clinical manifestations. Colonoscopy typically shows ischemia in the right colon, and CT scans typically reveal linear calcification in the mesenteric veins and their branches. While the exact cause and mechanism of the disease are not yet clear, there is some evidence suggesting a link to the damage to the vessel wall caused by geniposide. Sharing the diagnostic and treatment experience of this patient can help raise clinical awareness of idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis, leading to fewer misdiagnoses.
