description Thrombosis of the celiac artery trunk is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain which is associated with high mortality and morbidity if not diagnosed and treated early. We present an unusual case of celiac trunk artery thrombosis associated with aortic thrombosis and partial splenic infarction in a 52-year-old female who presented with acute abdominal pain.
