Agenesis of celiac axis is a rare congenital anomaly associated with variable patterns of origin of its various branches. Among this, separate origin of common hepatic and splenic arteries arising nearly at the same level directly from aorta is rarer. This article describes the congenital narrowing of common hepatic & splenic arteries near their origins origin, which has not been described in medical literature.
