Abstract

In this study, we aimed to report a case of superior mesenteric artery syndrome, with a particular focus on the patient's non-surgical management including enteral nutrition therapy. The focus of this patient's care includes nasogastric tube management, parenteral and enteral nutrition care (personalized nutrition treatment plan), proper lying position, negative pressure drainage in the stomach, and psychiatric mental health nursing. This case study supports that with efforts focusing on patients’ nursing and enteral nutrition therapy, non-surgical management could be an effective approach in treating superior mesenteric artery compression syndrome.
