Purpose: This case report describes a case of abdominal aortic stenotic disease treated with covered balloonexpandable stent with absence of the celiac trunk artery. Technique: Patients are selected for this strategy if they have a lesion without bifurcation involvement located at the mid segment of the infrarenal aorta or stenosis with unfavorable aortic anatomy, or severely diseased and calci...

The main classical branches of celiac trunk (CT) are the common hepatic artery (CHA), the left gastric artery (LGA) and the splenic artery (SA). During the educational dissections in a 62-year-old male cadaver a rare variation, the gastroduodenal-splenic trunk (GDST), was observed. GDST divided into SA and gastroduodenal artery (GDA). LGA and accessory left hepatic artery (ALHA) arose directly ...

This paper investigates the mechanical properties of blood flow in main arterial system of human. The system includes aorta, subclavian, mesosentric, iliac artery, renal artery, celiac artery. The geometric domain of artery network is obtained using a real patient data. As an input, Womersley velocity profile [2] is used. Combination of thirteen arteries with aorta gives better understanding of...

The routine dissection of a male body revealed multiple anatomical variations of the celiac trunk and hepatic artery vascularization. The origin of the celiac trunk was on the left side of the abdominal aorta, next to the T12-L1 intervertebral disk. The celiac trunk gave off five branches: the left inferior phrenic artery, the left gastric artery, the accessory right hepatic artery, the common ...

A rare anomaly, in which the celiac artery was not present, that is, the left gastric, the splenic and the common hepatic arteries arose independently from the abdominal aorta in that order, was found in an 80-year-old Japanese female among cadavers for student dissection. Such a case was not described in Adachi's classification (1928) of the variations of the celiac artery, but seemed to belon...

This stud}tests the possibility that pressoreceptors of the sinoaortic type may be located in thoracic vessels and innervated by thoracic afferent nerves. Heart rate and arterial pressure were recorded in anesthetized dogs with neural pathways intact, bilateral vagotomy and sinoaortic denervation before and after internal occlusion of the aorta just above the celiac artery. Results obtained ind...

celiac artery aneurysm is a rare visceral aneurysm, comparising only 4 % of them. in this article, an innovative surgical method is presented for the treatment o f such aneurysms. a 53 year old female referred to our center with epigastric pain and a mass in the region, which was diagnosed as a case of celiac artery aneurysm by using different imaging techniques. during the operation, according...

Rationale: Portal annular pancreas is a rare anatomic variation, where the uncinated process of the pancreas connects with the dorsal pancreas and the pancreas tissue encases the portal vein (PV), superior mesenteric vein (SMV) or splenic vein (SV). Malignancies are quite uncommon in the patients, who have an annular pancreas especially portal annular pancreas. Ectopic common hepatic artery and...

On 11 March 2010, a 51-year-old female on hemodialysis for about 10 years came to our hospital, complaining of abdominal and chest pain during sleep. She also had hypertension for >10 years and her blood pressure was not well controlled. Chest X ray was done, which showed increased lung markings and bilateral lower lung opacities, otherwise unremarkable. She was treated with antihypertensives a...

The purpose of this study was to determine the usefulness of large rabbits for basic vascular interventional radiology (IR) experiments. We used 5 Akita large rabbits (Akita) and 5 Japanese white rabbits (JW). We conducted measurements of vessel diameters such as the aorta, and the iliac, renal, superior mesenteric, celiac, and proper hepatic arteries, and of the growth rates of VX2 liver tumor...
