Abstract

Variations of arteries in the abdomen frequently include the celiac, renal and gonadal arteries. These anatomic variations are often responsible for variety of clinical conditions and pose major considerations during surgeries. Thorough knowledge of normal and variant anatomy of major unpaired arteries originating from the abdominal aorta is necessary to accomplish successful abdominal operations and to avoid complications. During routine dissection we came across a variation in the celiac trunk. Instead of normal trifurcation of the celiac trunk, we observed three separate trunks arising from the abdominal aorta: gastrophrenic trunk, hepatosplenic trunk and hepatophrenic trunk. The incidence and developmental as well as clinical significance of these variations having crucial surgical importance are discussed with a detailed review of the literature.
