This disorder can also be associated with pancreatitis, peptic ulcers, and other intra-abdominal inflammatory conditions. There are multiple causes of this disorder. One of them is a narrow Superior Mesenteric Arty to Aorta distance also known a narrow aortomesenteric vascular angle, also, a relatively low Superior Mesenteric Artery origin. The other causes are excessive weight loss (causes of mesenteric and retroperitoneal lipid tissue loss, such as burns, anorexia, or cancer), severe injuries, surgical complications, and abnormal peritoneal attachments associated with duodenal malrotaion. There are many tests used to identify this syndrome. Although some tests show the syndrome clearly many doctors do not look for it because it is such a rare disorder. Some of the tests are an x-ray (this will show a dilated stomach filled with fluid or gas), a gastrointestinal endoscopy (this will eliminate the possibility of intraluminal pathologies), a fluoroscopy (this will show if there is dilation of the first and second part of the duodenum, acquired compression on the third
