Diagnostic and Surgical Implications of Non-occlusive Mesenteric Ischemic Ileus Associated With Common Celiacomesenteric Trunk: A Case Report and Literature Review

The celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT), an exceedingly rare anatomic variant uniting the celiac artery and superior mesenteric artery (SMA), holds significant clinical and surgical implications. Despite its rarity, understanding these implications is crucial for effective management. This report outlines the case of a 99-year-old female presenting with septic shock and abdominal pain, with imaging revealing an incidental CMT. This paper aims to elucidate the surgical implications associated with CMT through a comprehensive case review and literature search. A 99-year-old female with multiple cardiovascular comorbidities presented with altered mental status and right lower quadrant abdominal pain. Upon arrival, the patient exhibited disorientation, an inability to follow commands, hypoxia, and hypotension. Significant laboratory findings included a white count of 20.6 x 10
