[Syndrome of compression of the celiac trunk of the abdominal aorta in adults]. 
The article presents results of examinations and surgical treatment of 300 patients aged from 19 through 72 years with the syndrome of compression of the celiac trunk of the abdominal aorta.  Under study were the symptoms and features of the clinical course as well as the possibilities of diagnosis with the help of ultrasonic duplex scanning and aortography.  The principal method of treatment of this syndrome is thought to be operative decompression of the celiac trunk resulting in the reestablished hemodynamics in this vessel and in recovery of the greatest part of the patients.
