A rare case of inferior mesenteric artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery,with a review of the review of the literature

Anatomical variations of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) are uncommon. Generally, the IMA is very stable, arises directly from the abdominal aorta at the level of the third lumbar vertebra. We describe here an extremely rare case in which the IMA arose from the superior mesenteric artery. The findings were made during routine dissection of the cadaver of a 79-year-old Japanese man. This present case is the ninth report of this variation and was associated with gastrophrenic trunk, hepatosplenic trunk, hypoplastic spleen and accessory spleen. Clinically, cases like this highlight the importance of knowing the IMA anatomy and the possibility of its numerous variations in surgical procedures such as right hemicolectomy, resection of the transverse colon, left hemicolectomy, sigmoidectomy, and en bloc resection of the head of the pancreas and the superior mesenteric vessels. The developmental significance of this variation is also discussed with a detailed review of the literature.     

Unusual origin and course of the testicular arteries

Background The testicular arteries usually arise from the anterolateral aspect of the abdominal aorta just inferior to the renal arteries at the level of the second lumbar vertebra. However, they may also originate from the renal artery, middle suprarenal artery, one of the lumbar arteries, common or internal iliac artery, or the superior epigastric artery. Methods An unusual origin of the right testicular artery and an unusual course of the left one were observed during routine dissection of the retroperitoneal space of a 43-year-old male cadaver. Results The right testicular artery originated from the inferior segmental branch of the right renal artery. After the left testicular artery originated from the anterolateral surface of the abdominal aorta just inferior to the left renal artery it was located between the left renal vein and the left renal artery and descended anterior to the renal vein. Thereafter it coursed on its normal route distally with the testicular vein. Conclusions Awareness of variations of the testicular arteries, such as that shown in this case, is important during surgical and radiological procedures pertaining to kidney.     

Detailed anatomy of a left accessory aberrant colic artery

In an aged human female cadaver a left accessory aberrant colic artery (LAACA) was observed and studied. It originated from the superior mesenteric artery at 3 cm proximal to the middle colic artery, at the inferior border of pancreas, passing over Treitz’s muscle and continued covered by the superior duodenal fold where it crossed the inferior mesenteric vein. Further, it continued with a satellite vein anterior to the left renal vein and the anterior branch of the renal artery. The LAACA divided into an ascending branch and a descending one, anastomosed with the middle colic and proper left colic arteries; between its two primary branches and the splenic flexure of colon, a hypovascular area was observed. The surgical relevance of the LAACA detailed anatomy mainly relates to specific procedures performed in left colectomies and nephrectomies.     

The relationship of myocardial bridges to coronary artery dominance in the adult human heart

Myocardial bridging is recognized as an anatomical variation of the human coronary circulation in which an epicardial artery lies in the myocardium for part of its course. Thus, the vessel is 'bridged' by myocardium. The anterior interventricular branch of the left coronary artery has been reported as the most common site of myocardial bridges but other locations have been reported. The purpose of this study was to provide more definitive information on the vessels with myocardial bridges, the length and depth of the bridged segment, and the relationship between the presence of bridges and coronary dominance. Two hundred formalin-fixed human hearts were examined. Myocardial bridges were found in 69 (34.5%) of the hearts with a total of 81 bridges. One bridge was found in 59 of these hearts and multiple bridges were observed in ten (eight with double bridges and two with triple bridges). Bridges were most often found over the anterior interventricular artery (35 hearts). Bridges were also found over the diagonal branch of the left coronary artery (14), over the left marginal branch (five) and over the inferior interventricular branch of the left coronary artery (six). Bridges were also found over the right coronary artery (15 hearts), over the right marginal branch (four) and over the inferior interventricular branch of the right coronary artery (two). The presence of bridges appeared to be related to coronary dominance, especially in the left coronary circulation. Forty-six (66.6%) of the hearts with bridges were left dominant. Forty-two of these had bridges over the left coronary circulation and four over the right coronary circulation. Seventeen hearts (24.6%) were right dominant. Eleven of these had bridges over the right coronary circulation and six over the left coronary circulation. The remaining six hearts were co-dominant with four having bridges over the left coronary circulation and two over the right coronary circulation. The mean length of the bridges was 31 mm and the mean depth was 12 mm. The possible clinical implications of myocardial bridging may vary from protection against atherosclerosis to systolic vessel compression and resultant myocardial ischaemia.

Anatomical study of the vertebral artery in japanese adults

The aim of the present study was to examine the vertebral arteries. The origins of the right and left vertebral arteries and their entrance points into the cervical transverse foramen were examined in dissections of 515 Japanese cadavers (303 males, 212 females) at Kurume University School of Medicine from 1990 to 2003. There were 515 right vertebral arteries and 514 left vertebral arteries. The right vertebral artery originated from the right subclavian artery in 514 of 515 arteries and one of the arteries arose from the bifurcation of the brachiocephalic trunk. The mean distance between the origin of the right subclavian artery and the right vertebral artery was 20.9 mm. The left vertebral artery originated from the left subclavian artery in 484 of 514 arteries and the mean distance between the origin of the left subclavian artery and the left vertebral artery was 32.1 mm. The remaining 30 arteries (5.8%) originated from the aortic arch between the left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery and this frequency is similar to previously published data. There was no right-left difference for the entrance point of the vertebral arteries into the cervical transverse foramen and the 6th cervical vertebra (C6) was the most common entrance point. Seventy-eight percent of our cases had right and left vertebral arteries that originated in the subclavian arteries and entered the cervical transverse foramen at C6. Among the 30 left vertebral arteries that originated from the aortic arch, 20 arteries (66.7%) entered a cervical transverse foramen at a level higher than C6. This frequency was higher than that for the left vertebral artery that originated from the subclavian artery.     

Unilateral arteria peronea magna associated with bilateral replaced dorsalis pedis arteries

During anatomic dissection, a 59-year-old man presented with an arteria peronea magna that replaced all the branches of the posterior tibial artery as well as the dorsalis pedis artery. Thus, the right popliteal artery terminated into the anterior tibial artery and the enlarged peroneal artery. The right anterior tibial artery ended before it reached the ankle. The right dorsalis pedis artery arose from the peroneal artery through its perforating branch. The left popliteal artery gave rise to a common stem that subdivided into two individual branches replacing the proximal part of the anterior tibial artery, and then divided into the posterior tibial artery and the peroneal artery. As on the right side, the left dorsalis pedis artery also arose from the peroneal artery through its perforating branch. A possible embryologic explanation of these variations is proposed.     

Rare multiple combined anomaly of the vertebral vessels and bronchial artery

Reported herein is a rare case of multiple vascular anomalies involving the vertebral vessels and the bronchial artery. In the present case the vertebral artery, which normally originates from the subclavian artery, arose directly from the cranial side of the aortic arch, just between the left common carotid and subclavian artery. Furthermore, the bilateral entry of the vertebral artery deviated to the upper level of the transverse foramen of the cervical vertebrae (C5). In addition, the left vertebral vein went through the transverse canal via the 5th and 7th transverse foramen, and drained into the left venous angle. Another conspicuous variation observed in this cadaver was the bronchial artery stemming from the left subclavian artery. This phenotype is an additional branch of bronchial arteries, which in normal cases arises from the descending aorta. These two anomalies could be explained by the deviation of the anlage for the left subclavian artery. The present report should be of interest for the clinician with regard to vascular anomalies in the neck and thoracic region, and may give insight into elucidating the developmental mechanism of angiogenesis.     

Bilateral origin of the internal thoracic artery from the third part of the subclavian artery a case report

The routine use of the internal thoracic artery (ITA) as a conduit in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery has highlighted the need to appreciate this vessel’s anatomic variations. The usual origin of this vessel is from the first part of the subclavian artery, occasionally from the second and rarely from the third. Henriques-Pino and Prates described a unilateral origin from the third part on the left and Vorster et al on the right. Our cadaveric case report presents an unusual bilateral origin of the ITA arising from the third part of the subclavian artery in a 25-year-old Black South African female. The ITA arose from the ventral aspect, 7.3 cm on the right side and 8.5 cm on the left side from the origin of the subclavian artery, and inclined acutely inferiorly and medially, anterior to the distal attachment of the scalenus anterior m., followed the inner border of the first rib for a short distance and, thereafter, continued its usual course in the thorax. This appears to be the first case report presenting a bilateral origin of the ITA from the third part of the subclavian artery.

Common hepatic artery arising from the left gastric artery: a rare anatomic variation identified on a cadaveric liver donor

Anatomical variations of the arterial supply of the liver are not uncommon. The typical normal “textbook” anatomy of the hepatic artery is found only in approximately half of the cases. Some of the variations such as the presence of a right or left hepatic branch are more common, but other ones are extremely rare. We describe here a rare case in which the common hepatic artery arose from the left gastric artery, found during a cadaveric liver donor harvesting and confirmed with imaging studies. Cases like this one highlight the importance of knowing the hepatic arterial anatomy and the possibility of its numerous variations by the transplant and hepatobiliary surgeon.     

Middle mesenteric artery: an anomalous origin of a middle colic artery

Summary A case of anomalous mesenteric artery is reported. The artery was incidentally cannulated during angiography of a patient with a left renal tumor. It arose from the abdominal aorta between the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries. The artery then ascended directly upwards from its origin and supplied the transverse colon replacing the middle colic branch of the superior mesenteric artery. The anomaly must be a result of a anomalous concentration of unpaired visceral arteries in the developing embryo. This type of anomaly is very rare and it would be appropriate to name the artery the middle mesenteric artery.

Artère mésentérique moyenne : une anomalie d'origine de l'artère colique moyenne

Résumé Un cas d'anomalie de l'artère mésentérique est rapporté. L'artère a été cathétérisée incidentallement lors de l'angiographie d'une patient présentant une tumeur rénale gauche. Elle naissait de l'aorte abdominale entre l'artère mésentérique supérieure et l'artère mésentérique inférieure. Elle montait directement à partir de son origine pour se distribuer au colon transverse et remplacer la branche colique moyenne normalement issue de l'artère mésentérique supérieure. Cette anomalie est sûrement le résultat d'une concentration anormale des artères viscérales impaires et médianes existant pendant la période embryonnaire. Ce type d'anomalie est très rare et justifierait le nom d'artère mésentérique moyenne.

     

Variant of the left coronary artery with an unusual origin and course: Anatomic and postmortem angiographic findings

This study demonstrates anatomic and postmortem angiographic findings characterizing the origin of the left coronary (LC) artery arising in common trunk with the right coronary (RC) artery from the right aortic sinus and its course via the ventricular septum (VS) to the left heart. This anomaly was a single finding observed among 388 angiographies and 60 corrosion castings. The course of the LC was divided in four segments. The first three form a curve that is upward concave. Large branches to the septomarginal trabecula (ST), VS, diagonals (DS), and the small anterior interventricular (anterior descending) artery originated from the outer part of this curve. In the anteroposterior x-ray, the above curve resembles a deep-bottom pot with a handle corresponding to the fourth segment. In the right anterior oblique, the first and second segments form a large erect angle. The third segment occupies the lower part of the absent proximal anterior interventricular artery, and the fourth crosses the outflow tract and the first segment in the middle. The course of these four segments of LC resembles the shape of the number 6. These findings are important for interpreting coronary angiographies in patients with this anomaly. Clin.

Accessory inferior thyroid artery and internal thoracic artery originating from the thyrocervical trunk

During the routine dissection of an 87-year-old Caucasian male cadaver, an accessory inferior thyroid artery originating from the left suprascapular artery was detected. In addition to the existence of inferior and superior thyroid arteries, a third thyroid artery arising from the left suprascapular artery was present at the left of these arteries; this artery was determined as the accessory inferior thyroid artery. Again, the left internal thoracic artery arose from the thyrocervical trunk. The internal thoracic artery originated near the thyrocervical trunk’s origin point and descended vertically. The thyrocervical trunk ended near the medial border of the anterior scalene muscle after giving rise to the inferior thyroid, transverse cervical and suprascapular arteries.     

Rare case of right accessory renal artery originating as a common trunk with the inferior mesenteric artery: a case report

Dissection of a male cadaver revealed several vascular abnormalities in the abdominal cavity, notably of the renal circulation. In particular, three renal arteries were observed on the right side and two on the left. On the right side, one accessory renal artery originated as a common trunk with the inferior mesenteric artery. Additional variations included a left inferior phrenic artery originating from the celiac trunk, bilateral testicular veins emptying into renal veins, and the left testicular artery arising from the left renal artery. The possible embryonic development of these branching patterns and their clinical significance are discussed briefly.

Systematization,Description, and Territory of the Middle Cerebral,Rostral, and Cerebroethmoidal Arteries on the Surface of the Brain of the Ostrich (Struthio camelus)

Thirty ostrich specimens were injected with red-dyed latex via the internal carotid arteries (Aa.) The middle cerebral and cerebroethmoidal arteries and their branches were systematized. The middle cerebral artery (a.) was always a single large vessel. On the right side, it had two, three, or one developed medial hemispheric branches in 46.6%, 26.7%, and 26.7% of cases, respectively. On the left side, one (36.7%), two (33.3%), and three (30%) developed medial hemispheric branches were observed. The middle cerebral artery had eight (40%), nine (20%), seven (16.7%), eleven (6.7%) ten (6.7%), twelve (3.3%), six (3.3%), and five (3.3%) developed lateral hemispheric branches on the right side and seven (46.7%), nine (13.3%), eight (13.3%), six (10%), five (10%), and ten (6.7%) on the left. Two (33.3%), four (20%), three (20%), one (16.7%), and five (10%) direct perforating branches of the middle cerebral artery were present on the right, and three (33.3%), two (30%), one (13.4%), six (10%), four (10%), and five (3.3%) were present on the left. The cerebroethmoidal artery, always present as a natural continuation of the rostral terminal branch of the brain's carotid artery and originating from the middle cerebral artery, was a large vessel that projected rostromedially, giving off the rostral cerebral artery shortly after its formation and continuing as the ethmoidal artery. The rostral cerebral artery was a single (90%) and double (10%) vessel on the right and a single (96.7%) and double vessel (3.3%) on the left. The ethmoidal artery was always a medium to large single vessel and was the natural continuation of the cerebroethmoidal artery, immediately after giving off the rostral cerebral artery.

A common hepatic artery passing in front of the portal vein

A variation in liver vascularization was discovered in a 50-year-old man. A single common hepatic artery was found to be responsible for vascularization of the entire liver. This artery was unusual in that it formed the first branch of the superior mesenteric artery, crossing the portal trunk shortly after its origin, and passed in front of the portal vein to reach the hilum of the liver, where it divided into a right and a left branch. This artery was a true common hepatic artery because a gastroduodenal artery emerged from it 2 cm after its origin. A common hepatic artery originating from the mesenteric artery and passing in front of the portal vein has never been described before. The patient had a second anatomical variation: the left gastric artery and the splenic artery arose directly from the aorta, without celiac trunk separation. This observation confirms the importance of carrying out a precise vascular assessment before all types of hepatic or pancreatic surgery, to identify possible variations in the number or trajectory of hepatic arteries.With the collaboration of the association Arold (Boulogne, France)
