Core Tip	A considerable number of median arcuate ligamentum syndrome patients are overlooked in the diagnosis of patients complaining of abdominal pain. They are unable to lead a normal life due to severe excruciating pain. However, without an accurate diagnosis, they are misunderstood as symptomatic gallstone patients and have their gallbladder removed or experience pain for a long time. In addition, as the currently known treatment involves surgery based on a mechanistic hypothesis, there are concerns about its complications. Therefore, medical drug treatment should be prioritized to determine whether improvement occurs.
