Acquaintance with the different anatomical variations of the arterial supply of the gallbladder is of great importance in hepatobiliary surgical procedures. A rare variation of the hepatobiliary arterial system was found during anatomical dissection of a female Iranian cadaver. Two cystic arteries were present, the first arising directly from the right hepatic artery and the second from the gas...

Familiarity with the different anatomical variations of the arterial supply of the gallbladder and liver is of great importance in all hepatobiliary surgical procedures. A complex anomaly of the hepatobiliary arterial system, which has never been reported before, was found during anatomical dissection of a 73-year-old male Caucasian cadaver. The accessory right hepatic artery (aRHA) took its or...

Arterial blood gas analysis is an important diagnostic and monitoring tool for respiratory abnormalities. In human medicine, lung complications often occur as a result of liver disease. Although pulmonary complications of liver disease have not been reported in dogs, we have frequently encountered hypoxemia in dogs with liver disorders, especially extrahepatic biliary obstruction. In addition, ...

effects of acute systemic hypoxia on the cardiovascular system (cys) and respiration of spontaneously breathing cats were studied in two conditions. 1): hypoxic air (6-8% 02 in n2) was given to the animal to induce systemic hypoxia for 20 minutes. hyperventilation at this condition lowered arterial c02 tension (pac02 hypocapnia). 2): in the second run, induction of hypocapnia was prevented by a...

introduction iran is amongst endemic countries for fasciola hepatica. individuals can become infected by consumption of contaminated uncooked green vegetables. in the chronic cases, symptoms are fever, vague abdominal pain with eosinophilia. patients sometimes have symptoms and signs of hepatobiliary involvements such as cholangitis and cholecystitis. case presentation here we present a unique ...

effects of acute hypercapnia on the cardiovascular system (cys) were studied in the anesthetized cat. after surgery the animal was exposed to a gas mixture of 12% co2 and 25% o2 in nitrogen, and hypercapnia with low levels of arterial ph (pha) was produced for 20 minutes. in the second run the same level of hypercapnia was induced by ventilating the same cat from the above gas mixture but pha w...

Normal hepatic arterial anatomy occurs in approximately 50-80% of cases; for the remaining cases, multiple variations have been described. Knowledge of these anomalies is especially important in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery in order to avoid unnecessary complications. We describe two cases of patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy for abnormalities in the head of the pancreas. Preope...

The cystic artery (CA) is known to exhibit variations in its origin and branching pattern. This is attributed to the developmental changes occurring in the primitive ventral splanchnic arteries. During routine dissection of a male cadaver, we observed that the CA originated from the middle hepatic artery (MHA) at a distance of about 1 cm from its origin, and the MHA originated from the right he...
