Comparative blood supply (cf canine) Flashcards
What blood vessels supply the caecum in the horse?
Medial and lateral caecal vessels
What blood vessel supplies the proximal ventral colon in the horse?
Colic branch of ileocolic
What blood vessel supplies the distal dorsal colon in the horse?
Right colic
What blood supply does the horse not have?
Horse has no anti-mesenteric ileal blood supply
In the pig, the left gastric artery is a branch off which vessel?
Splenic artery
What vessel supplies the centripetal coils (proximal) in pig and ruminants?
Colic branch of ileocolic
What vessel supplies the centrifugal (distal) coils in the pig and ruminants?
Right colic
In ruminants, what blood vessels supply the omasum and lesser curvature of the abomasum?
Left and right gastric
In ruminants, what blood vessels supply the greater curvature of the abomasum and ruminoreticulum?
Left and right gastroepiploic
And short gastric branches of splenic
Dogs, horses and pigs have simple stomachs. Which blood vessels supply by the greater and lesser curvatures?
Greater curvature - L&R gastroepiploic
Lesser curvature L&R gastric
Ruminants have a complex stomach. What blood vessel supplies the ruminoreticulum and greater curve of abomasum? What blood vessel supplies the omasum and lesser curvature of abomasum?
Ruminoreticulum and greater curvature = L&;R gastroepiplic
Lesser curvature of omasum and abomasum = L&R gastric
Dogs and ruminants have a small caecum. What blood vessels supply the caecum? What blood vessels supply the ileum?
Caecal branch of ileocolic
Anti-mesenteric ileal branch
Horses and pigs have a large caecum. What blood vessels supply the caecum? Do they have an anti-mesenteric ileal branch?
Medial and lateral caecal branch of ileocolic
NO
What blood vessels supply the transverse colon?
Middle colic
What blood vessels supply the descending colon?
Left colic
