The Pattern of Distribution of Inferior Mesenteric Artery – A Cadaveric Study
Journal Title: GJRA-Global Journal For Research Analysis - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
The arterial supply of the abdomen is unique for each individual. The conventional description and illustration of the arterial blood supply to the intestinal tract are too incomplete which may mislead the surgeons in the intestinal surgery. Surgical procedure for diseases of colon is one of the most common operative procedures performed by the surgeons. The blood supply to the intestinal tract is mainly from the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) & inferior mesenteric artery (IMA), Branches from abdominal aorta. Variations in branching pattern of arteries are common. These variations are usually due to the changes occurring during the development of vessels. The knowledge of the anatomy of colonic mesenteric arteries & it’s distribution is necessary to accomplish successful uncomplicated abdominal operations, especially laparoscopic colonic resections in which the mesenteric vessels can't be palpated. We studied the pattern of distribution of the Inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) & it’s branches in formalin preserved 50 cadavers at the department of Anatomy, MGM Medical College, Navi Mumbai, India. .This study was conducted to enlighten our knowledge about colonic blood supply.
