Aberrant gastroduodenal artery with splenic origin

Abstract

Purpose

Knowledge of the wide variability in celiac trunk branches is of paramount importance when planning an abdominal surgery.

Methods

We, hereby, report a previously undescribed origin of the gastroduodenal artery discovered on an abdominal angio-CT.

Results

CT-angiogram performed on a 33-year-old female randomly revealed a new variant of gastroduodenal artery arising directly from the splenic artery along with other vascular aberrations. The latter were previously described in medical literature.

Conclusion

High-quality preoperative imaging is crucial for identification of visceral artery variations, as those can technically modify the surgical or interventional procedure.
