SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY SYNDROME: A CASE REPORT IN SRISAKET HOSPITAL
Keywords:
Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome (SMAS), Chronic abdominal complaints, Partial duodenal obstruction, Roentgenographic findingsAbstract
Superior Mesenteic Artery Syndrome (SMAS) is a rare condition. The case is often undiagnosed because of the unawareness and the roentgenographic or endoscopic examinations are often negative. It should be considered in patients with long standing abdominal complaints and do not respond to the standard medical regimens.
A case of Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome, diagnosed by roentgenographic examination of the upper gastrointestinal tract and treated by surgical intervention in Srisaket Hospital after having been treated by medical conservative treatment without improvement, was reported and the literatures had been reviewed.
