VARIATION IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY OF LIVER AND GALLBLADDER

Abstract :

Vascular variations in and around the porta hepatis are common. A sound knowledge of possible variations at these sites is vital for surgeons during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and surgical resection of the liver lobes. We report the case of several variations of the hepatic and cystic arteries in which, the common hepatic artery trifurcated into the gastroduodenal, right hepatic, and left hepatic arteries. The right gastric artery arose from the left hepatic artery and divided into a left and a right anch. The left anch entered the liver through the porta hepatis, while the right anch passed behind the common hepatic duct into the Calot‘s triangle, provided 2 anches to the gallbladder, and continued to supply the right hepatic lobe. Ligation of the right anch of the right hepatic artery in Calot‘s triangle during cholecystectomy could cause avascular necrosis of the liver segments it supplies. BACKGROUND: Relatively few authors have investigated and depicted the topographic relations of the entire arterial pattern emanating from the celiac axis and the upper segment of the superior mesenteric artery. Very few have undertaken the arduous task of dissecting from origin to distribution all of the major arteries to the liver and gall bladder. AIMS & OBJECTIVES : Focused on coelic trunk and its anches particularly hepatic artery, and mesenteric artery.
