Inferior Phrenic Arteries and Their Branches, Their Anatomy and Possible Clinical Importance: An Experimental Cadaver Study

Abstract: Surgery is the preferred treatment method for hepatic malignancies. Due to advanced tumor stage and accompanying cirrhosis, most cases are considered inoperable at the time of diagnosis (1). It is well known that the blood supply to liver malignancies is typically arterial, unlike the parenchyma, which is supplied by the portal vein (2). Apart from being the main arterial supply to the diaphragm, the right and left inferior phrenic arteries (RIPA and LIPA), are extrahepatic collateral arterial pathways that su… Show more

“…The second most frequent type of RIPA origin was found to be the celiac trunk by Kimura et al [14] and Basilie et al [5], the abdominal aorta by Loukas et al [16] and Aslaner et al [4], and the right renal artery by Gürses et al [11]. It is worth mentioning that Kimura et al [14] report the possibility of RIPA originating from the dorsal pancreatic artery, while Aslaner et al [4] note the possibility of it originating from the common hepatic artery.…”

“…Usually, the inferior phrenic artery arises from the abdominal aorta or branches in the following pattern: As a common trunk, from ipsilateral renal, left gastric, common hepatic artery, superior mesenteric, or suprarenal artery. 6 Rarely, it may arise from the celiac trunk. In most patients, RIPA arises as a single trunk from the aorta or right RA.…”

“…The RIPA and LIPA can arise separately from the abdominal aorta or from an IPAT [7]. Loukas et al [15] gave an account of their findings concerning various aspects of the IPAs in their dissection of 300 cadavers.…”

“…For instance, the right inferior phrenic artery (RIPA) and left inferior phrenic artery (LIPA) arise separately or from a common trunk [7]. In addition, there are variations wherein the common trunk of the RIPA and LIPA (IPAT) arises from the LGA, abdominal aorta, or CT [1-3, 6, 10, 12, 13, 15, 20-23, 25].…”
