abstract={Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome (MALS) is due to compression of the celiac axis by a fibrous arc shaped band of tissue connecting the right and left diaphragmatic crus. It is characterized by postprandial abdominal pain, weight loss, and intermittent abdominal bruit. Due to lack of specificity in clinical presentation, MALS is typically a diagnosis of exclusion and is low on the differential diagnosis for chronic abdominal pain. Here, we present a case of MALS in a young female.},
