  • Title: Celiac artery trunk thrombosis presenting as acute liver failure.
    Author: Ali-Akbarian M, Kahrom M, Kahrom H.
    Journal: J Coll Physicians Surg Pak; 2011 May; 21(5):301-3. PubMed ID: 21575541.
    Abstract:
    Acute mesenteric ischemia is a life-threatening vascular emergency that requires early diagnosis and intervention to adequately restore mesenteric blood flow and to prevent bowel necrosis and patient death. While, almost always superior and inferior mesenteric arteries are involved, we report a 57-year-old male with an unusual celiac artery trunk thrombosis leading to gastero-duodenal and hepato-splenic infarction, and presenting an acute liver failure.
