On examination, he had a body mass index of 17.2\u00a0kg\/m\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    and was normotensive. Blood tests were unremarkable except for a mildly raised serum creatinine. A CT angiography (CTA) showed MAL-related 60% proximal CA narrowing and 40% proximal right renal artery (RRA) narrowing with a small right kidney. After multi-disciplinary team discussion, surgical MAL release at both sites was planned. The surgery was started laparoscopically to identify CA origin by a \u2018top to down\u2019 approach. The CA origin could not be visualised as it was looping behind the pancreatic neck caudally; hence the procedure was converted to open. CA origin was identified and overlying MAL divided. After kocherisation, RRA origin was found compressed by right limb of MAL and was divided. The operative duration was 200 mins with 50\u00a0mL blood loss.\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    The patient had an uneventful recovery. At 12-month, he is asymptomatic with serum creatinine normalised and gained 8\u00a0kg weight. A follow-up CTA at 2\u00a0months showed a normal CA and RRA. In this report, we discuss briefly about the current presentation, diagnosis and treatment of MAL compression of CA and other upper abdominal arteries.\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold>\n                    The learning point from this case is that one should carefully inspect all upper abdominal arteries in CTA for MAL-related compression as they may be asymptomatic, and this enables simultaneous treatment at these sites too in a single surgery.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15385744261428768","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,20]],"date-time":"2026-02-20T15:22:33Z","timestamp":1771600953000},"page":"535-539","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Median Arcuate Ligament Compressing Multiple Arteries in a Young Man Treated by Surgical Release"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"60","author":[{"given":"Eswaravaka","family":"Saikrishana","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2280-3862","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Balakrishnan","family":"Selvakumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Taruna","family":"Yadav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Subhash Chandra","family":"Soni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peeyush","family":"Varshney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lokesh","family":"Agarwal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chhagan Lal","family":"Birda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ankit","family":"Rai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2019.11.012"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s002619900199"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00261-024-04315-7"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5603\/FM.a2016.0017"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejvs.2022.08.033"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvscit.2020.03.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/2050640620916681"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.avsg.2025.01.039"}],"container-title":["Vascular and Endovascular Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/15385744261428768","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/15385744261428768","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/15385744261428768","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,29]],"date-time":"2026-06-29T03:49:11Z","timestamp":1782704951000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/15385744261428768"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,20]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/15385744261428768"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/15385744261428768","relation":{},"ISSN":["1538-5744","1938-9116"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1538-5744","type":"print"},{"value":"1938-9116","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,20]]}}}
