AbstractWe herein report a case of spontaneous isolated dissection of the celiac artery. A Japanese man in his 50s visited an emergency unit, complaining of sudden epigastralgia. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography indicated dissection of the celiac artery with patent false and true lumina, extending to the splenic and common hepatic arteries. On day 3 of hospitalization, the dissection progressed to the proper and right hepatic arteries. Progression of the dissection to the right hepatic artery provoked acalculous ischemic cholecystitis, and cholecystectomy followed. The resected gallbladder revealed extensive aseptic necrosis with little inflammatory reaction, and the gallbladder neck was spared from ischemia.
