@tvickey Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and thank you for telling your story of celiac artery aneurysm. That explanation by your doctor comparing the dissection to wallpaper is the best I have heard! Did you have surgery then?
I had MALS - median arcuate ligament syndrome- the celiac artery was compressed by a ligament. I’m sure the symptoms are similar. Do you still have your spleen?
I have been diagnosed with a fusiform aneurysmal dilation of the celiac artery 1.8 cm x 1.4 cm just below its origin on Oct 28 2021 . The VA is my primary and they can not take the case so they are looking outside the VA . I have no pain or symptoms. They found it doing a CT scan for my heart and chest arteries. The only other case beside yours is a 30 year old male with 3 gunshot wounds to his abdomen. They are supposed to be formed by trauma . I had a bad accident 34 years ago and had trauma to my kidneys and broke my left femur. How was your 2019 test . Did the doctor tell you what activities you can do or not do ?
I noticed someone else here suggested they were Factor V Leiden (Factor 5 Leiden). Anyone else told this?
