A case of absent coeliac trunk

Journal Name:

Publication Year:

Abstract (2. Language): 
During routine dissection of abdomen and pelvis of sixty five years old donated female cadaver in Department of Anatomy, Grant Government Medical College, Byculla, Mumbai, India, we observed absence of coeliac trunk. All three classic branches viz. left gastric, splenic and common hepatic artery originated from abdominal aorta independently without any common trunk. Normally all these branches arise from common trunk called as coeliac trunk which in turn arises from abdominal aorta. The further course of each of three branches was normal. The knowledge of such variation is of utmost importance for radiologists and surgeons performing on upper abdominal region for chemotherapy for pancreatic carcinoma, liver transplantation and triple vessel angiography etc.
