I saw the "hook" sign of median arcuate ligament syndrome.

ABSTRACT

The hook sign is a radiologic finding best appreciated on a sagittal view of the celiac artery with computed tomography (CT) that indicates compression of the celiac artery. It refers to the hooked-shape of the proximal celiac artery caused by extrinsic compression by the median arcuate ligament. When seen in a patient with concurrent abdominal symptoms, it suggests median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS). We saw the sign in a 15-year-old male via duplex ultrasonography and abdominal CT. He underwent laparoscopic release of the median arcuate ligament and had full resolution of his symptoms at follow-up.
