Spontaneous Isolated Visceral Artery Dissection in a Middle Aged Male

الملخص EN

Epigastric pain is a common complaint made by patients being evaluated in the emergency department.

Spontaneous isolated visceral artery dissection is a rare cause with no reported prevalence.

We present a case of a 37-year-old male evaluated in the emergency department for epigastric pain and subsequently diagnosed with a spontaneous isolated celiac artery dissection with involvement of the hepatic and splenic arteries.

Recent case series suggest this disease may be managed medically in most cases.

Surgical intervention may be considered for significant bleeding or signs of intestinal ischemia.
