Hi Kjaffee, welcome. You'll notice that I moved your question about SMA to this existing discussion about Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome. I did this so that you can connect with other members like @jenninaloha @sharronbz @gregh @jmmb @carolynlivingjaks @jcvece @lasirvent @granma, who can share their experiences and help you know what questions to ask the surgeon at you appointment tomorrow.

I think your first question about whether the duodenal malformation and SMA syndrome are related is a good question to start with. What other questions do you plan to ask?

I would like to know how these diagnoses relate to each other. I have had abdominal CTs before as well as two colonoscopies and endoscopies. I am 74. How could this just be found now? How urgent is this? It seems so rare and complicated.
