Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome (MALS)

Seven years and dozens of CT scans later I've now been diagnosed with MALS. 90% stenosis of the celiac axis. I'm now in search of a doctor that specializes in this type of ailment since it seems to be a rare condition. Any suggestions?

Hello @dpresbit sorry you are one of us, but it is good to finally get a diagnosis. Where do you live? There is a Facebook group called Mals Pals and they have an updated list of surgeons/drs. by state. It is made from word of mouth from members on the site that have recommended them. If you don't want to join, I can look for you and let you know.

I am so sorry to hear about your diagnosis! Do you mind me asking where you live?
