Introduction: This study aimed to determine whether the proximity of the median arcuate ligament (MAL) and the celiac artery (CA) changes in patients following surgery to correct adult spinal deformity (ASD). We hypothesized that the distance between the MAL and the CA shortens after corrective spinal surgery, which may cause acute celiac artery compression syndrome (ACACS). Methods: A total of 89 patients (68.4±7.6 years; 7 men/82 women) with ASD treated with spinal correction surgery were included in the present retrospective study. The level of the MAL, CA, and distance between the MAL and the CA (DMC) were determined via reconstructed computed tomography. MAL overlap was determined preoperatively and postoperatively. Results: The MAL and CA moved caudally following surgery. On average, after surgery, no changes in DMC were observed. We found preoperative MAL overlap in 32 (36%) patients, who also had postoperative MAL overlap. No patients showed any MAL overlap postoperatively. Conclusions: Contrary to our hypothesis, the distance between the MAL and the CA did not shorten, and emerging MAL overlap was not observed postoperatively. |
