description | Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is a rare condition in patients who have oral feeding intolerance. Due to decreased fat tissue around the duodenum, the angle between the superior mesenteric artery and duodenum also decrease.

We share this article to increase awareness of this condition and recommend early nutritional support for immobilised patients. |
