Laparoscopic versus robot-assisted surgery for median arcuate ligament syndrome
2013
Background
Median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) is an uncommon disorder characterized by postprandial abdominal pain, weight loss, and vomiting related to the compression of the celiac artery by the median arcuate ligament. This syndrome has been classically treated with an open surgical approach. More recently, laparoscopic and robotic approaches have been used. We present our outcomes with laparoscopic and robot-assisted treatment of MALS.
