Anatomical Variation Of Coeliac Trunk
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 10
Abstract
Anatomical variations of the coeliac trunk are very common. A variation of coeliac trunk occurs due to the developmental abnormalities in the ventral splanchnic arteries. Main Purpose of this study was to identify and evaluate the spectrum and prevalence of coeliac axis (CA) variations and its branches. During routine dissection on adult cadavers in Anatomy department, we found some variations in the branching pattern of the coeliac trunk. The left gastric artery arises as first branch of coeliac trunk and then the trunk bifurcates into splenic and hepatic arteries. Right gastric artery is seen originating from the hepatic artery proper. Knowledge of this rare variation is clinically very important for surgeons , especially while performing liver transplantation, gall bladder surgeries, trans arterial catheterization for hepatic tumors.
