case_images: Given the patient's symptoms and history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, a computed tomography angiogram was performed, which demonstrated moderate-to-severe stenosis of the proximal superior mesenteric artery (Figures 1-2), mild stenosis of the celiac trunk, and a patent inferior mesenteric artery without evidence of collateralization.
