The aim of the study was to use multimodal optical coherence tomography (MM OCT) to evaluate microstructure and microcirculation in the proximal and distal sections of the intestine relative to the resected area in acute mesenteric ischemia.

Materials and Methods. The study was carried out using three groups of male Wistar rats weighing 270–435 g (n=18). Acute occlusive arterial ischemia of the small intestine was initiated in all animals. After 80–90 min, the ischemic non-viable part of the intestine was resected, and the operation was completed by stoma exteriorization (group 1, n=6), by applying purse-string sutures (group 2, obstructive resection, n=6), or by internal drainage of the proximal and distal ends of the small intestine (group 3, bypass, n=6). Relaparotomy and anastomosis formation were performed 2 days later.

With the help of MM OCT at each stage of the surgical intervention, images were obtained from the serous membrane side: the intestinal wall microstructure (layers) was viewed using cross-polarization OCT (CP OCT) and the intramural circulation — using optical coherent angiography (OCA). The MM OCT images obtained from the terminal intestine sections immediately after resection and 2 days later (before the anastomosis formation) were compared between the experimental groups, as well as with the pre-ischemic data (norm). All resected sections of the intestine were then histologically examined. The MM OCT data were compared with the histological and intravital macroscopy data.

Results. As a result of studying the intestinal wall microstructure by in vivo CP OCT, it was found that during ostomy (group 1) and obstructive resection (group 2), the images showed signs of tissue edema and destructive changes in the mucous membrane that were confirmed histologically, while with bypass surgery (group 3), there were minimal changes as compared with the norm.

According to the OCA data, on day 2 of ostomy in the proximal and distal segments of the intestine, there was a noticeable disappearance of small and medium blood vessels; mainly large arteries and veins could be visualized. Following obstructive resection (purse-string suturing) or bypass surgery, the most noticeable changes (a decrease in the number of visualized blood vessels) were observed in the distal part of the intestine. The L index calculated from OCA images and characterizing the total length of the intramural perfused vasculature, showed a statistically significant decrease during ostomy: 12.18 [10.40; 14.20] µm — in the proximal and 10.67 [7.98; 13.05] µm — in the distal section; for comparison, the L index before ischemia was 18.90 [17.98; 19.73] μm and 18.74 [17.46; 19.90] μm, respectively (p=0.0001). In obstructive resection (group 2), statistically significant differences in the L parameter were found only for the distal bowel section: 16.39 [12.37; 18.10] µm compared with 18.74 [17.46; 19.90] μm before ischemia (p=0.041). After bypass surgery (group 3), there were no significant deviations in the L index.

Conclusion. By using MM OCT, we found that in treating the remaining sections of the intestine after its emergency resection for acute mesenteric ischemia, the type of surgical technique determines the tissue structure in the period before the delayed anastomosis is applied. The least pronounced and most balanced changes occur in the proximal and distal segments of the intestine when operated using the bypass technique. However, to recommend this type of surgery, the development of reliable, safe, and effective bypass instruments is needed.
