摘要：

Median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS), also known as Dunbar syndrome, is one of the many rare vascular compression syndromes attributed to celiac trunk compression by the median arcuate ligament of the diaphragm, with presentations ranging from completely asymptomatic to myriad gastrointestinal symptoms, including chronic abdominal pain (CAP), post-prandial pain, nausea and vomiting, anorexia, early satiety, and subsequently weight loss. We present a case of a 50-year-old female presenting with ongoing multiple chronic gastrointestinal symptoms, later attributed to the marked narrowing of her celiac axis secondary by the median arcuate ligament.
