Abstract :

The knowledge of abdominal vascular anatomy is very important for surgeons and radiologists to perform many of the clinical diagnostic evaluations. The coeliac trunks; one of the anches of the abdominal aorta shows numerous variations in its anching pattern and its anches. Total 40 cadavers were included in the present study. The aim of this study was to find out the variation in origin, course, anching pattern, length and diameter of coeliac trunk. Dissection of the trunk was performed after opening of the peritoneal cavity. Measurements were noted and statistically analyzed. The coeliac trunk originates from the abdominal aorta between T12 & L1 vertea in maximum number of cases i.e.71.68%. The average measurement of length was 1.86 cm. The average measurement of diameter was 9.83mm. The anching pattern of the coeliac trunk was noted as classical trifurcation, abnormal trifurcation, bifurcation & tetrafurcation. The most common was the classical trifurcation seen in 47.5%, bifurcation 35.0%, abnormal trifurcation 10.0% and tetrafurcation of coeliac trunk were seen in 5.0% cases. The absence of coeliac trunk was present in 2.5% case, the anches of coeliac trunk directly originated from the aorta.
