Gastric outlet (GO) obstruction in an adult is usually caused by intrinsic gastric or duodenal lesions or pancreatic tumours. This study describes a case of a 77-year-old man who developed GO obstruction due to extrinsic compression from a large gastroduodenal artery aneurysm under rupture. This cause of GO obstruction has never previously been reported in the literature.
