“…They may be the dorsal pancreatic (Michels, 1951), left or right phrenic (Munger, 1941;Yü ksel, 1992), middle colic or an accessory colic artery (Koizumi and Horiguchi, 1990;Sato et al, 1984). Absence of the celiac trunk was found in two cases of Vandamme and Bonte's (1985) 156 abdominal angiographies and in one of the Okada et al (1983) cadaveric studies. In one case of Vandamme and Bonte and also cases of Okada et al, these arteries arose separately from the aorta.…”

The celiac trunk is the widest ventral branch of the abdominal aorta. The unusual embryological development of the ventral splanchnic arteries can lead to considerable variations. During the dissection of a 54‐year‐old male cadaver as a rare variation, a celiacomesenteric trunk was observed. The rare occurrence of this variation is stated to be 1%;–2.7%;. As in the other case, the celiac trunk and the superior mesenteric arteries arose from a common trunk at the level of L1. This case of celiacomesenteric trunk is described in detail, which can be of value in the operative procedures of the upper abdomen. Clin. Anat. 10:231–234, 1997. © 1997 Wiley‐Liss Inc.

“…In rare cases, all three components (LGA, CHA, and SA) are branched independently from the aorta (1,12,13). In addition, it has been reported that the CT unites with the SMA at their origins to form a common trunk, the celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT) (9,14).…”

Background/Aims: Anatomical variation of the abdominal arteries is important. Historic and modern anatomists, radiologists, as well as surgeons have reported and accumulated anatomical variations with a morphological and clinical interest. During graft procurement and reconstruction, accidental injury of the hepatic artery is more likely in the presence of hepatic arterial variation, which can be a common clinical entity. During cadaveric dissection and diagnostic radiological imaging, various types of vascular anomalies are frequently found in human abdominal viscera, especially the celiac trunk. The aim of the present study is to determine anatomical variations in the celiac trunk and hepatic arterial system. Materials and Methods: Digital subtraction angiography data were collected from 152 consecutive donor patients (103 males and 49 females, aged between 6 and 77 years) who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation. Results: We examined the anatomy of the celiac trunk in a total of 152 consecutive patients. In total, 62.5% (95/152) of patients showed the classical trifurcation of the celiac trunk. Variant right hepatic arteries arising from the superior mesenteric artery were observed in 17.8% (27/152), the hepatic arteries arising from the left gastric artery were found in 13.1% (20/152), and common hepatic arteries arising from the superior mesenteric artery were observed in 6.6% (10/152) of patients. Conclusion: These data are useful for planning and performing surgical and radiological procedures of the upper abdomen.

“…For example, only two of the classical branches of the trunk may be present (Vandamme & Bonte;Shoumura et al, 1991;Harada et al, 1997;Kahraman et al, 2001;Nakamura et al, 2003;Saeed et al, 2003): a) a gastrolienal trunk occurs when the hepatic artery arises from the superior mesenteric artery or the aorta; b) a hepatolienal trunk is present when the left gastric artery originates directly from the aorta; c) a hepatogastric trunk occurs when the splenic artery originates from the aorta or the superior mesenteric artery. In some cases, the trunk itself may be absent and its branches then arise from the aorta (Morettin et al, 1965;Okada et al, 1983;Vandamme & Bonte;Basar et al, 1995;Yamaka et al, 1985). In rare cases, the celiac trunk and the superior mesenteric artery can be fused to a celiacomesenteric trunk (Cavdar et al, 1997;Detroux et al, 1998;Agarwal et al, 2000).…”

A Different Origin of the Right Gastro-omental Artery

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

SUMMARY:The gastro-omental artery is one of the branches of the common hepatic artery. Alterations in the embryonic development of the ventral splanchnic arteries can cause marked variations. A rare variant of the right gastro-omental artery was observed during dissection of a 50-year-old male cadaver. The occurrence of this variant has not been reported in the specialized literature. This case of a different origin of the gastro-omental artery is described in detail in order to provide information that may contribute to upper abdominal surgeries.
