Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMA) (choice B) is the correct answer. This rare, but life-threatening condition must be considered in any patient with a history of rapid weight loss presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms. SMA syndrome describes the compression of the third portion of the duodenum by the abdominal aorta and the overlying superior mesenteric artery (see image below). Retroperitoneal fat and lymphatic tissue normally serve as a cushion for the duodenum, protecting it from compression by the SMA. This cushion effect is lost in cases of rapid weight loss. The resulting duodenal obstruction causes symptoms of epigastric pain (especially postprandial), nausea, vomiting, and early satiety. Abdominal CT scan is the modality of choice to make the diagnosis however signs of duodenal obstruction (gastric distension) may be present on radiographs. ⚠ Viral gastroenteritis (choice A) can have the described symptoms, but would typically be accompanied by lower GI tract symptoms as well (diarrhea). In addition, given this risk for SMA syndrome in this patient, a viral illness would be a diagnosis of exclusion. ⚠ While appendicitis (choice C) could be a possibility in any patient with nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain, the fact that she lacks fever and has a normal white count make it less likely. In addition, appendicitis would not explain the findings of stomach distension on the radiograph.   ⚠ Nutcracker syndrome (choice D) describes compression of the left renal vein between the aorta and the SMA. Symptoms are typically left flank pain and hematuria due to venous hypertension. This is an anatomical entrapment syndrome and, unlike SMA syndrome, is not related to sudden weight loss.  ⚠ Renal colic (choice E) typically presents with lower back/flank pain radiating to the groin. Most urinary calculi develop from the age of 20-40 (peak from 35-45 years), making it less likely in this adolescent. 🔖 Key point: Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is rare, but life-threatening condition that must be considered in any patient with a history of rapid weight loss presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms. SMA syndrome describes the compression of the third portion of the duodenum by the abdominal aorta and the overlying superior mesenteric artery.

⏳ Case-based MCQ | #Case_465 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 A 14-year-old girl is brought into the ED by her mother as she is worried about her daughter's weight. On history, she has lost 13.5 kg in the last six months and admits to fatigue, dry skin, hair loss, constipation, and poor concentration at school. Upon hospital admission, the patient is started on nasogastric feeds to meet minimum caloric requirements. A few days after being admitted, the patient starts complaining of nausea, "stabbing" abdominal pain as well as vomiting without diarrhea. An abdominal radiograph shows a distended stomach but is otherwise normal.
