Two Cases of Saddle Embolism Which Took a Different Post Operative Course

Abstract

Saddle embolism causes acute severe ischemia to bilateral lower limbs and myonephropathic metabolic syndrome (MNMS) frequently after reperfusion. The prognosis of this disease is not so good. Therefore, we should make a diagnosis and an adequate treatment for this disease as soon as possible. We have encountered and reported two cases of saddle embolism which took a different post operative course with review of literature.
