| Core Tip |
Median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) is a rare disorder caused by compression of the median arcuate ligament against the celiac trunk. Patients with MALS often present with chronic postprandial abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and unexplained weight loss. Imaging examination is the preferred screening method. MALS is confused with many common diseases, and definitive diagnosis requires exclusion of other causes of abdominal pain. In this case, combination of gallbladder stones and chronic cholecystitis made it easy to miss diagnosis of MALS. Clinicians should be more aware of MALS. Surgery can provide immediate symptomatic relief and can be an effective treatment for MALS. |
