CT imaging showing SMA syndrome and Nutcracker Syndrome. (a) Coronal view of gastroduodenal dilation (arrow). (b) Sagittal view of aortomesenteric region. The angle between the AA “A” and the SMA “B” was less than 35° (measured at 13°) (c) The third portion of the duodenum was compressed by the decreased aortomesenteric angle in the transverse plane. The compressed LRV between the AA “A” and the SMA “B” was showed as arrow (bird beak sign). The dilation LRV was showed as star. The zoomed structures presented in the lower left. (d) Three-dimensional reconstruction of the AA “A” and the SMA “B”
