although gastrointestinal bleeding is common, hemobilia due to the rupture of hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm is uncommon. we report a case of hemobilia which was successfully treated via angiography.

Introduction The abdominal aorta begins at 12th thoracic vertebra, and it descends anterior to the lumbar vertebrae, and bifurcates at the 4th lumbal vertebral body. It supplies all the abdominal organs, abdominal walls, gonads, and lower extremity [1]. In the usual vasculature, celiac trunk is divided into three branches: common hepatic artery (CHA), splenic artery (SA), and left gastric arter...

In classical anatomic variants, the proper hepatic artery (PHA)continues the common hepatic artery (CHA) after the gastroduodenal artery (GDA) detaches itself and divides into the right hepatic artery (RHA) and left hepatic artery (LHA), the proper hepatic artery being located to the left of the hepatocholedochal duct (HCD). This paper presents an abnormal positioning of the PHA placed before t...

OBJECTIVE To review the anatomical variations of the right lobe encountered in 40 living liver donors, describe the surgical management of these variations, and summarize the results of these procedures. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Anatomical variability is the rule rather than the exception in liver and biliary surgery. To make effective use of liver segments from living donors for transplantati...

The routine dissection of a male body revealed multiple anatomical variations of the celiac trunk and hepatic artery vascularization. The origin of the celiac trunk was on the left side of the abdominal aorta, next to the T12-L1 intervertebral disk. The celiac trunk gave off five branches: the left inferior phrenic artery, the left gastric artery, the accessory right hepatic artery, the common ...

background: isolated right bundle branch block (rbbb) is a common finding in the general population. the atrioventricular node (avn) artery contributes to the blood supply of the right bundle branch. our hypothesis was that the anatomy of the avn artery and the pattern of dominancy differ between subjects with and without rbbb. methods: w e retrospectively studied the coronary angiography of 92...

cytomegalovirus is the most common viral infection after kidney transplantation. clinical presentations of cytomegalovirus infection range from asymptomatic infection to organ-specific involvement. most symptomatic infections manifest as fever and cytopenia. the gastrointestinal tract is the most common site of tissue-invasive infection, often presenting as diarrhea or gastrointestinal bleeding...

The celiac trunk is the first major branch of abdominal aorta. It originates from ventral aspect aorta at level T12–L1 vertebrae and was originally described as an artery that branches into common hepatic artery, left gastric splenic artery. Absence origin three arteries separately a rare entity reported in 0.38% to 2.6% cases. even more uncommon this variation can be accompanied by other vascu...
