We report the case of a 48 year old man who presented with a 4 month history of vomiting and weight loss. Barium studies and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy demonstrated anteriomesenteric duodenal occlusion. We discuss the possible aetiology and significance of his investigation findings and subsequent management.
