Celiac artery compression syndrome is defined as chronic, recurrent abdominal pain related to compression of the celiac artery by the median arcuate ligament. It is also referred to as celiac axis syndrome, median arcuate ligament syndrome, and Dunbar syndrome.Jan 28, 2021
I77. 4 - Celiac artery compression syndrome. ICD-10-CM.
Various imaging techniques such as duplex ultrasound, magnetic resonance angiography, computerized tomography angiogram, and visceral angiography can be used to diagnose this condition. Surgical decompression of the celiac artery by division of the median arcuate ligament has been shown to be very effective.
Celiac trunk stenosis is a relatively common finding; the most common causes of this obstruction are median arcuate ligament syndrome, pancreatitis, local invasion of various malignancies originating from the pancreatic body, atherosclerosis or it can be idiopathic.May 3, 2018
The suggested causes of celiac axis stenosis are atherosclerosis, acute and chronic dissection, and compression of the celiac axis by the median arcuate ligament (,1–,4), the latter having been described as the principal cause of celiac axis stenosis, particularly in the Asian population (,5).
Overview. Median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) occurs when the arc-shaped band of tissue in the chest area (median arcuate ligament) presses on, or traps, the artery that supplies blood to the organs in your upper abdomen (celiac artery).Dec 4, 2020
Recurrent compression of the celiac artery over time may lead to fibrotic changes in the arterial wall, resulting in chronic stenosis [2,3]. CACS is a rare disorder, diagnosed in only 2 out of 100,000 cases in patients with abdominal pain where other causes have been ruled out.Jul 4, 2021
Celiac disease has been linked to arrhythmias and possible heart failure, so investigators hypothesized the disease is also associated with CAD.Apr 4, 2014
The celiac artery, also known as the celiac axis or celiac trunk, is a major splanchnic artery in the abdominal cavity supplying the foregut. It arises from the abdominal aorta and commonly gives rise to three branches: left gastric artery, splenic artery, and common hepatic artery.Oct 18, 2021
Function. The celiac artery supplies oxygenated blood to the liver, stomach, abdominal esophagus, spleen, and the superior half of both the duodenum and the pancreas.
Patients with celiac artery stenosis/occlusion are treated by interventional radiology (IR) via dilation of the pancreaticoduodenal arcade. In patients with dilation of the pancreaticoduodenal arcade on SMA angiograms, IR through this artery may be successful.
In medicine, the median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS, also known as celiac artery compression syndrome, celiac axis syndrome, celiac trunk compression syndrome or Dunbar syndrome) is a condition characterized by abdominal pain attributed to compression of the celiac artery and possibly the celiac ganglia by the median arcuate ligament.

To make a diagnosis, your health care provider will do a physical exam and ask about your symptoms and medical history. You may have imaging tests and/or blood tests.
Celiac disease affects each person differently. Symptoms may occur in the digestive system, or in other parts of the body. One person might have diarrhea and abdominal pain, while another person may be irritable or depressed. Irritability is one of the most common symptoms in children.
A person with celiac disease may become malnourished no matter how much food is consumed. A malabsorption syndrome that is precipitated by the ingestion of foods containing gluten, such as wheat, rye, and barley.
