Abstract :

Isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SMAD) has been anecdotally reported as a rare and sporadic cause of acute abdominal pain, with an incidence of approximately 0.06% according to postmorteminvestigations [1]. The majority of SMAD patients have been reported to be middle-aged men [2]. Treatment options for SMAD include conservative therapy, endovascular repair, and surgery. Here, we report a case of SMAD in a young woman after childbirth who was cured with conservative medical managements without anticoagulant therapy.
