To the editor： Median arcuate ligament syndrome （MALS） or celiac axis compression syndrome is an uncommon causeof mesenteric ischemia. Median arcuate ligament usually passes superior to the origin of the celiac axis. Celiac trunk is compressed by the median arcuate ligament during expiration） The majority of patients are observed with symptoms weight loss and abdominal pain. Celiac artery compression with Doppler ultrasound, Computed tomography （CT） angiography, selective catheter angiography and magnetic resonance angiography can be ascertained. After the disease is diagnosed, surgery is performed to relieve the compression.2
