초록

상장간막동맥 증후군은 식후 복부팽만, 오심, 구토 등의 상복부 폐쇄증상을 호소하며 복부초음파, 복부 전산화단층 촬영등으로 진단할 수 있다. 대부분은 보존적 치료로 호전되며 간혹 수술이 필요한 경우도 있다. 소화성 궤양이 흔하게 합병될 수 있고 췌장염, 대사성 알칼리혈증, 저칼륨혈증, 요독증 등의 합병증도 보고된 바 있으나, 본 저자들의 경우와 같이 넛크래커 증후군이 동반된 경우는 아직 국내 및 외국의 문헌에 보고된 바 없다. 저자들은 최근 제1형 당뇨병 환자가 내원 3주 전부터 5 kg의 급격한 체중감소 뒤에 구토 및 좌측 옆구리 통증, 구토 등으로 내원하여 이에 임상 소견 및 방사선 소견을 통해 넛크래커 증후군이 동반된 상장간막동맥 증후군을 진단하였고 이를 내과적 치료로 호전시킨 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is an uncommon cause of a proximal intestinal obstruction. The most characteristic symptoms are postprandial fullness, nausea, and vomiting. The diagnosis is established by ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced computed tomography. Almost all patients respond well to conservative management. However, if conservative management fails, surgical options should be applied. In this article, we report a case of SMA syndrome with Nutcracker syndrome in a patient with diabetes mellitus. Establishing the diagnosis of Nutcracker syndrome is usually based on clinical suspicion and radiological findings. Several complications that have been reported to result from SMA syndrome include peptic ulcer disease, pancreatitis, metabolic alkalosis, and uremic syndrome. However, Nutcracker syndrome accompanied by SMA syndrome is extremely uncommon, as described in this case. To our knowledge, this association has not been reported previously.
