“…4 The incidence of CMT reported by other workers are given in Table 1 MDCT angiography. Origin of right or left inferior phrenic or common inferior phrenic trunk as an additional branch from celiac artery arising from CMT was reported by Bhatnagar et al 26 Sridhar Verma et al 27 reported the initial division of CMT into gastrosplenic and hepatomesenteric trunks and Kara et al 28 reported that the CMT after giving origin to CHA and SA continued as the gastromesenteric trunk which then split into LGA and SMA. It is observed that there is a male preponderance in the occurrence of CMT in the published case reports.…”

We present two cases of patients with celiomesenteric trunk in whom theKey words: celiomesenteric trunk, multidetector computed tomography angiography, mesenteric arterial variation nal aorta and its branches. Multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) is a relatively new, fast and easy to perform imaging modality which can accurately demonstrate the abdominal aorta and its branches by replacing the use of DSA [4].We describe two cases of common CMT demonstrated by MDCTA and confirmed by DSA.

“…5 The celiac trunk (CeT) and SMA are the two widest vessels arising separately from the ventral aorta. 6 CeTs exhibited classic trifurcation into the left gastric, common hepatic, and splenic arteries in only 87.7% of patients. 6 A celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT), with the celiac and SMA having a common origin from the aorta, accounts for less than 1% of all splanchnic artery anomalies, and it is estimated to have an incidence of 0.25%, with only a few patients with CMT disease having been reported in the literature in a separate series.…”

Introduction Nutcracker syndrome is a rare disease entity that is caused by entrapment of the left renal vein between the aorta and superior mesenteric artery, usually due to abnormal branching of the superior mesenteric artery from the aorta causing renal venous hypertension. The symptoms vary from asymptomatic hematuria to severe pelvic congestion. Celiacomes-enteric trunk anomaly is a rare variation of splanchnic artery anomaly that occurs when the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric arteries have a common origin from the aorta. A disease involving the rarely encountered celiacomesenteric trunk anomaly is extremely uncommon. To our knowledge, association between nutcracker syndrome and celiacomesentric trunk anomaly has not been reported in the literature. Case presentation A 14-year-old boy with no significant past medical history presented with a 3-year painless hematuria. CT-angiogram revealed anterior nutcracker syndrome with celiacomesenteric trunk anomaly. The patient was managed conservatively with close follow-up. Conclusion Nutcracker syndrome associated with celiacomesenteric trunk anomaly is extremely uncommon and is a rare cause of hematuria in children. Whether this abnormal anatomy is the cause of nutcracker syndrome or just an association should be investigated. Moreover, awareness of this anatomical variation may help in planning therapeutic options and reducing the chance of surgical iatrogenic injuries.
