Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 45
Abstract
[b] BACKGROUND[/b]: purpose of present study was to describe the variations in the branching pattern of caeliac trunk. Caeliac trunk is one of the ventral branch of abdominal aorta.it arises from the abdominal aorta opposite to intervertebral disc of T12 & L1 vertebrae.it has short course of 1.5 cm after which it terminates by dividing in to three branches splenic artery, left gastric artery and common hepatic artery. Here we report unusual branching pattern of caeliac trunk. Knowledge of such variations in branching pattern of caeliac trunk is very important for surgeons, anatomists and anaesthetists. [b]METHODS[/b]: The present study is done on 30 cadavers irrespective of sex in department of Anatomy in KURNOOL MEDICAL COLLEGE, Kurnool. According to dissection guidelines of cunnighams practical manual of Anatomy. [b]RESULTS[/b]: The present study was an attempt to study the occurrence of the branching pattern of the coeliac trunk. The available literature was reviewed. The coeliac trunk took origin from the ventral surface of the aorta in all the 30 specimens. The various patterns were normal hepatolienogastric trunk in 92%, lienogastric trunk in. In one Type I, 2% to Type II, 2% to Type III, 2% to Type IV. The most common pattern of branching of the Coeliac trunk was the Hepatogastrolienal type, which has been accepted as the normal pattern of specimen, coeliac trunk divided into common hepatic & splenic arteries, the left gastric artery took origin from the splenic artery. [b]CONCLUSION:[/b] In my study out of 30 specimens 92% belonged to Type I, 2% to Type II, 2% to Type III, 2% to Type IV. This classification is according to LIPSCHUTZ (1917). The most common pattern of branching of the Coeliac trunk was the Hepatogastrolienal type, which has been accepted as the normal pattern of branching of the Coeliac trunk.
