Article Synopsis
- * Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is usually better for severe obesity linked to GERD, but it's not ideal for Japanese patients due to their higher gastric cancer risk and challenges with observing the stomach during endoscopies.
- * A new method combining LSG and Toupet fundoplication (called T-sleeve) was tested and showed promising results in a patient, suggesting it could be a viable treatment for Japanese patients with severe obesity and GERD

Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS) is a specific type of duodenal obstruction marked by a blockage of the inferior part of the duodenum as a result of compression between the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the aorta. Depletion of the mesenteric fatty pad causes this complication. In the current study, we describe a case of SMAS involving a 36-year-old lady who presented with postprandial pain, weight loss, and hematemesis.

Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the preferred bariatric procedure in many countries. However, new onset erosive esophagitis (EE) is a major shortcoming.
