@entity49 is an insidious disease, with a high mortality rate typically attributed to the long delay in diagnosis. Rapid diagnosis and treatment are important. Here, we present a @entity1 with @entity49 . A 65-year-old @entity1 presented with constant @entity490 associated with @entity221 and @entity294 . He was diagnosed with severe @entity31 and was treated with @entity2983 and @entity617 . The @entity617 was tapered because of @entity409 , and he received total parenteral nutrition for a month. His @entity490 and @entity294 worsened, and he lost 5  kg of weight. He was then transferred to our institute. Computed tomography showed thickening of the left colon. Colonoscopy showed @entity1960 with @entity1066 , large @entity4 folds, congested mucosa, and @entity850 of the sigmoid colon, with sparing of the rectum, raising the possibility of IMV @entity715 . Angiography confirmed IMV @entity715 . Anticoagulation therapy was initiated with intravenous @entity6950 followed by oral @entity1229 . His @entity490 and @entity294 resolved, and he was discharged from hospital. Six months later, he remained asymptomatic with normal colonoscopic findings.
