“…Complications include dehydration, electrolyte disturbances, aspiration pneumonia, failure to thrive, gastric ischaemia and perforation, and oesophageal rupture. (2,6) Frequently, the symptoms are nonspecific, as in the present case. Symptom relief when assuming an anatomical position that widens the aortomesenteric distance (e.g.…”

A 16-year-old Chinese male patient, who had a past medical history of hyperventilation complicated by carpopedal spasms, presented to the emergency department with constipation of five days' duration, colicky abdominal pain, lethargy, weakness and body aches. He was still able to pass flatus, and did not complain of vomiting, fever, chills or rigors. On examination, the abdomen was soft and non-tender. Digital rectal examination was unremarkable, as was the full blood count, except for a raised total white blood cell count of 16.6 × 10 9 /L. Renal and liver function tests and urinalysis were also unremarkable. The patient was hospitalised for further investigation of constipation. During his hospital stay, abdominal radiography was performed (Fig. 1). He subsequently desaturated acutely, and computed tomography (CT) was performed (Fig. 2)

“…Other conditions occasionally as- sociated with duodenal compression include Crohn disease, Henoch-Schönlein purpura, hypothalamic germinoma, pancreatitis, cholecystitis, connective tissue disorders, and pregnancy causing exaggerated lumbar lordosis. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][16][17][18][19] Diagnosis centers on clinical symptoms combined with radiographic images confirming duodenal obstruction. A wide array of imaging modalities can be used.…”

Laparoscopic duodenojejunostomy is safe and effective and should be considered the optimal treatment for patients presenting with duodenal obstruction from SMA syndrome. Advances in minimally invasive surgery have demonstrated the safety and low morbidity of laparoscopically created enteric anastomoses. The shorter hospital stay, low morbidity, and high success of laparoscopic enteric bypass make this approach favorable to traditional open techniques.

Bariatric surgery is the most effective and durable treatment for morbidly obese patients. However, there are remained unsolved problems with various types of complications. Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is a rarely known condition occurred following bariatric surgery. We experienced 54-year-old female patient diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery syndrome 5 year later after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding. Because symptoms have not improved with conservative care, laparoscopic duodenojejunal bypass was successfully performed for this patient.
