Abstract

We report a series of nine cases of unusual etiologies for vascular duodenal compression that do not meet the diagnostic criteria for superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome and propose that “SMA-like syndrome” be used to classify these vascular duodenal compression cases.

Keywords

superior mesentery artery syndrome - SMA-like syndrome - duodenal compression - vascular compression
