Unusual Pancreatico-Mesenteric Vasculature: A Clinical Insight
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Awareness about the variable vascular anatomy of superior mesenteric artery is imperative for appropriate clinical management. Present study not only augments anatomical literature pertaining to mesenteric vasculature but also adds to the clinical acumen of medical practitioners in their clinical endeavors. Case summary: The present study reports the occurrence of anomalous branch, termed as accessory inferior pancreatic artery stemming from superior mesenteric artery. Additionally inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery was seen to be dividing into right and left branches instead of usual anterior and posterior branches. Right branch terminated by anastomosing with anterior branch of superior pancreaticoduodenal artery whereas left branch supplied the proximal part of the jejunum. Anomalous course of anterior branch of superior pancreaticoduodenal artery was also seen. Conclusion: Knowledge of anomalous and variable branching pattern of superior mesenteric artery is crucial while performing various surgical and radiological procedures as it helps in minimising the intraoperative as well as postoperative complicationsCase summary: The present study reports the occurrence of anomalous branch, termed as accessory inferior pancreatic artery stemming from superior mesenteric artery.

Mesenteric cyst and unusual manifestation: a case report
Introduction: Mesenteric cysts are rare intra abdominal masses and its prevalence is 1 out of 140000 in general hospitals and 1 out of 20000 in pediatric hospitals. In majority of the cases it is benign with several manifestations. Diagnosis is difficult , but with suspicion to cyst and using paraclinical procedures can be led to definite diagnosis. Case report: In this study a mesenteric cys...
متن کاملCongenital Incomplete Fusion of Superior Mesenteric Artery Mimicking Dissection
BACKGROUND Both spontaneous SMA dissection and anatomical variants of GIT vasculature are well known entities. We present a case initially diagnosed as an SMA dissection on CT, but upon detailed review of the imaging findings was considered to be incompletely fused ventral segmental arteries--a rare anatomic variant not well described before. This finding is clinically significant, as it can mi...
متن کاملAdditional branches of celiac trunk and its clinical significance.
The anatomical variations of the abdominal arteries are important due to its clinical significance. Various types of vascular anomalies are frequently found in human abdominal viscera, during cadaveric dissection and diagnostic radiological imaging. The present report describes a variation in the celiac trunk as found during routine dissection in a 59-year-old male cadaver. The celiac trunk (CT...
متن کاملCommon hepatic artery ascending on the anterior surface of the pancreas and left renal vein running beneath the diaphragm.
Rare vascular anomalies were observed postmortem in a Japanese female (60-yearold). 1) The common hepatic artery arose from the superior mesenteric artery, ascended on the anterior surface of the pancreas, where the right gastro-epiploic and right gastric arteries branched, and continued as a normally-positioned proper hepatic artery. 2) Superior to the inferior phrenic arteries and along the c...
متن کاملBacterial translocation in cirrhotic rats stimulates eNOS-derived NO production and impairs mesenteric vascular contractility.
Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in the arterial vasodilation and associated vascular hyporesponsiveness to vasoconstrictors observed in liver cirrhosis. Bacteria, potent activators of NO and TNF-alpha synthesis, are found in the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) of ascitic cirrhotic rats. Here, we investigated the impact of bacterial translocation (BT) to MLNs on TNF-alpha production, vascula...
