摘要
Decreased intraabdominal fat can lead to intraabdominal compressive syndromes, such as superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome. This phenomenon is rare but should be considered in a patient with recent rapid weight loss and acute gastrointestinal complaints. A delay in diagnosis and treatment can lead to severe complications, such as a gastric rupture. We report a case of SMA syndrome in a teenage male with recent intentional weight loss and intractable emesis, and the possible associations of SMA syndrome and Nutcracker syndrome.
