  • Title: Multiplicity of the variations in ventral branches of abdominal aorta.
    Author: Ucerler H, Asli Aktan Ikiz Z.
    Journal: Ital J Anat Embryol; 2006; 111(1):15-22. PubMed ID: 16736714.
    Abstract:
    Numerous variations of the ventral branches of the abdominal aorta were observed during routine dissection of the abdominal region in a 63-year-old male cadaver in the Department of Anatomy at Ege University Medicine Faculty. The branches of the celiac trunk were arising from two different trunks as the upper and below ones. The trunk at the upper was gastrophrenic trunk and the trunk at the below was hepatosplenic trunk. The superior mesenteric artery arose from the front of the abdominal aorta just below the hepatosplenic trunk. The relations of the right testicular artery was also unusual. Although the variations of the abdominal aorta branches are common the present case is interesting because of the multiplicity of the variations. The knowledge of these variations could be useful for clinicians for recognition and protection.
