Common celiacomesenteric trunk: a computed tomography radiological study.
Folia Morphologica (Warsz) 2018 March 4
BACKGROUND: There is an increasing trend for administration of invasive radiological interventions, laparoscopic surgery, and transplantation procedures in recent years, and determining the vascular variations prior to these procedures is crucially important. Celiacomesenteric trunk (CMT) is among these variations. This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate this rare anomaly by computed tomography (CT).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 1000 CT angiography images were analyzed retrospectively, and the patients with mesenteric and celiac arteries arising from the abdominal aorta with a single root were identified. The level that CMT arose, and its branching patterns were determined individually for all patients.
RESULTS: Ten patients (6 males and 4 females) with a mean age of 50.2 years (17-87 years) had CMT in CT images.
CONCLUSIONS: The knowledge of variations in the CMT prior to vascular or laparoscopic interventions will contribute to early intervention in case of a complication, or to avoid from a potential damage.
