Distance from Left Renal Vein to Inferior Pancreaticoduodenal Artery: A Landmark for Identifying Inferior Pancreaticoduodenal Artery in Pancreatoduodenectomy

Abstract: Background/Aim: During pancreatoduodenectomy, early ligation of major afferent arteries to pancreatic head prior to dissection of the corresponding veins may reduce intraoperative bleeding. Inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery (IPDA), one of the major afferent arteries, is difficult to identify. We measured the distance from left renal vein to IPDA based on preoperative multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) images for use as a new landmark for IPDA. Methods: The distance between left renal vein and IPDA… Show more

“…Focusing on IPDA identification, we also advocated distance from the left renal vein as a new landmark for identifying IPDA. 10 Variations in hepatic arterial anatomy are reported in 40-45 per cent of the population. 11,12 Although the right hepatic artery (RHA) normally arises from the proper hepatic artery (PHA), one of the most frequent variants is "replaced RHA (rRHA)," which is when RHA originates from arteries other than PHA, such as SMA, common hepatic artery (CHA), left gastric artery (LGA), or aorta.…”
