We present a case of giant superior mesenteric artery (SMA) aneurysm in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance, and angiographic findings are discussed. To our knowledge, SLE associated with a giant SMA aneurysm as a late complication of previous lupus mesenteric arteritis has not been reported previously.
