Celiac artery bypass is a surgical procedure used to treat blockages or narrowing in the celiac artery, which supplies blood to the stomach, liver, spleen, and other abdominal organs. The surgery involves bypassing the blocked or narrowed artery with a graft to restore blood flow and prevent complications such as organ ischemia or tissue damage.
This procedure is typically performed in cases of atherosclerosis or other vascular conditions that affect the celiac artery, improving organ function and preventing life-threatening complications.
