Dissection of the visceral arteries happens infrequently, with the superior mesenteric artery being the most commonly affected. Isolated dissection of the celiac trunk is rare, and only a few cases have been reported in the medical literature. We report the case of a 51-year-old male who presented with abdominal pain and was subsequently diagnosed with a celiac trunk dissection with secondary pancreatitis and pancreatic infarction. The patient's symptoms improved with conservative medical management. We review the current literature involving celiac trunk dissection and its management, and provide discussion regarding this unrecognized complication of pancreatitis.
