The patient was a 22-year-old woman with a 10-year history of anorexia nervosa restricting subtype who had been diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome (Figure 1). She reported diffuse abdominal pain and nonvolitional vomiting shortly after food consumption, which was contributing to further weight loss. With nutritional rehabilitation, which initially included increased amounts of liquid supplements and eventual tolerance of a regular oral diet, she achieved a body mass index of 20.08 kg/m2, with near resolution of her gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and computed tomography findings no longer meeting criteria for SMA syndrome (Figure 2).
