Abstract	Wilkie's syndrome, also known as superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome, is a rare cause of duodenal outflow obstruction due to compression of the third part of the duodenum from a narrowing of the angle between the superior mesenteric artery and abdominal aorta. Despite its rarity, SMA syndrome should be considered particularly in patients with relevant symptoms and risk factors. We discuss the case of a healthy 34-year-old man with no comorbidities who presented with complaints of acute abdominal pain, distension, and vomiting after a heavy meal. Owing to compression of the third part of the duodenum between the superior mesenteric artery and aorta, the stomach and proximal duodenum were dilated on computed tomography, and conservative management was successful in this case.
