| Core Tip |
Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is exceptionally rare, and its coexistence with a right paraduodenal hernia during pregnancy adds diagnostic and operative complexity. In this patient, pregnancy-adapted non-contrast computed tomography identified a right paraduodenal hernia and suggested aortomesenteric duodenal compression, with definitive superior mesenteric artery obstruction established intraoperatively. After internal hernia reduction, operative anatomy permitted a wide, tension-free side-to-side duodeno-duodenostomy - an uncommon but physiologically favorable alternative to duodeno-jejunostomy in this isolated setting. This case underscores the importance of early surgical decision-making, physiology-preserving reconstruction, and selective postoperative endoscopic assessment to safely enable early enteral nutrition in high-risk pregnant patients. |
