BACKGROUND: Duodenum inversum is an often unrecognized anomaly of duodenal rotation/fixation at upper gastrointestinal (UGI) contrast study because the duodenojejunal junction appears normally located. OBJECTIVE: This anomaly is important to diagnose because it may result in obstructive gastrointestinal symptoms. CONCLUSION: We describe a case of duodenum inversum mimicking superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome that improved after surgical therapy.
