  • Title: The systemic arterial pattern of the guinea pig: the abdomen.
    Author: Shively MJ, Stump JE.
    Journal: Anat Rec; 1975 Jul; 182(3):355-66. PubMed ID: 1155805.
    Abstract:
    The systemic arterial pattern of the guinea pig was studied to determine the arrangement of the major arterial trunks and their branches. Fiftynine specimens were examined by dissection, angiography or corrosion casting. The arterial arrangement was found to resemble a typical mammalian pattern, although some exceptions were noted. For example, the guinea pig usually has a single vessel, the celiacomesenteric trunk, instead of separate celiac and cranial mesenteric arteries. The celiac components of this vascular axis were found to originate in four different patterns. Also, the renal arteries were found to be single or double on either side with double origins more frequent.
