Blood Supply to Abdomen - Celiac trunk Flashcards
(14 cards)
major blood supply structures in abdominal aorta
- celiac trunk
- superior mesenteric artery (SMA)
- Inferior mesenteric artery (IMA)
- common iliac artery
- external iliac artey
- internal iliac artery
Level aorta enters abdomen (+ via what structure) and level abdominal aorta bifurcates
- enters at T12 via aortic hiatus
- bifurcates at L4-5
Level of celiac trunk, SMA and IMA
Celiac trunk –> T12
SMA –> L1
IMA –> L3
Which parts of the gut do the celiac trunk, SMA and IMA supply
Celiac trunk –> foregut
SMA –> midgut
IMA –> Hindgut
Points of anastomosis between celiac trunk, SMA and IMA
Celiac trunk - SMA –> embryological foregut meets midgut
SMA - IMA –> embryological gut meets hindgut
Specifically what parts of the foregut does the celiac trunk supply
everything from abdominal esophagus to proximal 1/2 of duodenum
- distal esophagus, stomach, proximal duodenum, pancreas, liver, gallbladder and spleen
Branches of the celiac trunk
- Common hepatic artery
- Splenic artery
- Left gastric artery
Arteries supplying the lesser curvature of the stomach
- Left gastric artery
- Right gastric artery
Arteries supplying the greater curvature of the stomach
right and left gastroepiploic ateries
Path and branches of the splenic artery
- travels posterior to stomach
- Short gastric artery and left gastroepiploic artery
Branches of left gastric artery and what they supply
Esophageal branches
- supply distal esophagus and lesser curvature of stomach
Branches of the common hepatic artery
- Hepatic artery proper
- Gastroduodenal artery
Branches of the hepatic artery proper
- Right gastric artery
- Right and left hepatic arteries
- Cystic artery
Branches of the gastroduodenal artery
- Supraduodenal artery
- Superior pancreaticoduodenal arteries (anterior and posterior)
- Right gasteroepiploic artery
