The celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT) is a rare anatomical variant where the celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery share a common origin. Despite its rarity, CMT has significant implications across various medical fields, particularly in surgical planning and interventional procedures. We report a case of chronic mesenteric ischemia owing to atherosclerotic stenosis at the CMT bifurcation, necessitating a complex interventional approach.

Article Synopsis
  • - The aorta can have various anatomical variations in its branches, some common and others rare, which can impact medical interventions.
  • - These variations are often discovered incidentally during imaging studies, but they are clinically significant, especially when treating diseased patients.
  • - The imaging case series presented highlights important variations in the branches of the aortic arch and abdominal aorta, along with a literature review on the topic.

Article Synopsis
  • The celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT) is a rare anatomical variation that connects the celiac artery and superior mesenteric artery (SMA), having important clinical implications for surgeries and patient management.
  • A case study of a 99-year-old woman with septic shock uncovered an incidental CMT, along with significant lab findings indicating severe illness, requiring immediate medical intervention.
  • Complications related to CMT, such as stenosis or thrombosis, could lead to complex surgical procedures, highlighting the necessity for healthcare professionals to thoroughly understand these risks to prevent complications in critically ill patients.

Background: The celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT) is a common duct of the celiac artery (CA) and the superior mesenteric artery originating from the aorta, which is an uncommon anatomical variant of visceral artery circulation. Because of the variety of visceral circulation in those with CMT, the visceral circulation associated with each branch should be evaluated prior to surgical treatment of visceral artery aneurysm in the CMT.

Case Presentation: A 64-year-old woman was diagnosed with a CA aneurysm in the CMT.
