Abstract
We report a case of superior mesenteric artery thrombosis in a 57–year-old woman undergoing chemotherapy for T1N1M0 breast cancer. Although cancer itself is associated with an increased risk of thrombotic events, treatment with chemotherapy and/or tamoxifen in breast cancer patients increases this risk. Most cases reported are of venous thromboembolism; arterial events are rare.
