Chronic mesenteric vascular insufficiency rarely causes symptoms unless both the superior mesenteric artery and celiac axis are substantially narrowed or occluded because collateral circulation between the major splanchnic trunks is extensive. (msdmanuals.com)
According to ISGPS definitions, the tumor contact to the celiac trunk, more than 180° abutment to the superior mesenteric artery, infiltration of the inferior vena cava, unreconstructable superior mesenteric vein or occlusion of the portal vein, or aortic invasion or encasement are considered signs of locally advanced pancreatic cancer [ 12 ].

Patients and methods: Preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography scans of 164 consecutive patients with primary esophageal cancer were evaluated by two radiologists to apply a calcification score (0-3 scale) assessing the aorta, the celiac axis and the right and left postceliac arteries. (uni-frankfurt.de)
Ten of 14 patients had aortic calcification scores of 1 or 2, but calcification scores of the aorta, the celiac axis and the right and left postceliac arteries did not correlate with the corresponding TC stenosis values and showed no influence on patient outcome as defined by the occurrence of anastomotic insufficiency (p=0.565, 0.855, 0.518 and 1.000, respectively).

Plexus5
Depending on the diagnosis of the patient, we may recommend a celiac plexus block. (primmed.org)
A celiac plexus block is a diagnostic injection that interrupts the pain signals from the body to the brain, and thus provides pain relief. (primmed.org)
Located near the upper part of the abdomen along the spine, the celiac plexus is a bundle of nerves that can become inflamed or compressed due to trauma. (primmed.org)
When PriMMed recommends a celiac plexus block, a trial block is usually performed first. (primmed.org)
However, the dissection extended to the celiac artery, which was severely stenotic or occluded (Fig. 1 b and c). (biomedcentral.com)
Aorta4
Specific risk factors such as celiac trunk (TC) stenosis and high calcification score of the aorta have been identified, but no data are available on their relative prognostic values. (uni-frankfurt.de)
The celiac trunk, which is the first and one of the most important branches of the aorta, originates at the level of diaphragm's aortic hiatus and upper edge of the first lumbar vertebra. (eurjanat.com)
In addition, we measured the direction of the celiac trunk at the axial plane and the angle of the origin from the aorta at the sagittal plane. (eurjanat.com)
In 4 of the evaluated patients, the common hepatic artery and gastrosplenic trunk originated separately from the aorta. (eurjanat.com)
Severe1

Her medical history is unremarkable except for celiac disease which is treated with a gluten-free diet. (doctorsmedicalopinion.com)
Calcification score1
This retrospective study aimed to compare and evaluate calcification score versus stenosis quantification with regards to prognostic impact on anastomotic leakage. (uni-frankfurt.de)
Contrast-enhanced2
Conclusion: Measurement of TC stenosis in preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography scans proved to be more reliable than calcification scores in predicting anastomotic leakage and should, therefore, be used in the risk assessment of patients undergoing esophagectomy and gastric pull-up. (uni-frankfurt.de)
In addition, contrast-enhanced CT revealed restenosis of the celiac artery (Fig. 3 a and b) and unenhanced liver image (Fig. 3 c and d). (biomedcentral.com)

Patients2
Results: Anastomotic leakage was noted in 14/164 patients and 12/14 showed stenosis of TC (n=11). (uni-frankfurt.de)
Here, we aimed to determine whether matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-7, MMP-9 and MMP-10), tissue inhibitor of MMPs (TIMP-1) and in vivo inflammation studied by F-18-FDG-PET/CT predict recurrent cardiovascular events in patients with carotid stenosis who underwent endarterectomy.

Upper3
As the celiac trunk is the most important structure supplying the upper gastrointestinal system, knowledge about its morphology and variations is critical for the management of the surgical and interventional radiological procedures in the upper abdomen. (eurjanat.com)
The clavicle or collarbone is the bone that connects the upper limb to the trunk. (differencebetween.net)
This will allow for equal strengthening which facilitates better support of the upper trunk. (pegasuspain.com)

We believe that the knowledge about the morphology, origin angle, and direction of the celiac trunk can be a guide for the interventional radiological procedures and decrease the risk of possible complications. (eurjanat.com)
In our study, our objective was to investigate the corpus of the celiac trunk: in other words, the part between the origin of the trunk and the bifurcation instead of the branching of the trunk. (eurjanat.com)
