Introduction. Superior mesenteric artery syndrome develops due to compression of the horizontal branch of the duodenum by the superior mesenteric artery and leads to chronic duodenal obstruction. Objective. The aim of the study was to analyze the patient’s own observations of diagnosis and treatment of superior mesenteric artery syndrome. Materials and Methods. The results of laboratory and instrumental studies, as well as clinical observation of the patient before and after treatment for superior mesenteric artery syndrome, are presented. Laparoscopic side-to-side duodenojejunostomy was performed as the surgical treatment. Results. Successful surgical treatment resulted in the disappearance of disease symptoms, as confirmed by objective examination and instrumental examination. Discussion. It is important to be aware of the existence of rare pathologies such as superior mesenteric artery syndrome and to utilize modern, more effective diagnostic methods. If conservative treatment methods are not indicated or have been exhausted, and satisfactory treatment results are not achieved, surgical methods of treating the syndrome should be used. Conclusions. The most commonly used surgical treatment method for superior mesenteric artery syndrome is currently the creation of a duodenojejunostomy, which is associated with good results. Moreover, the laparoscopic method of creating anastomosis is considered the “gold standard” for this pathology, good results of which were observed during the study presented in the article.
