The gastroduodenal artery can be the source of a significant gastrointestinal bleed, which may arise as a complication of peptic ulcer disease.Because of its close relationship to the posteromedial wall of the second part of the duodenum, deeply penetrating ulcers or tumours of the duodenum may cause torrential bleeding from the gastroduodenal ‘artery of haemorrhage'. [1]
Blood supply to the stomach: left and right gastric artery, left and right gastro-omental artery and short gastric artery. [ 3 ] The celiac artery and its branches; the stomach has been raised and the peritoneum removed.
Over time, these arteries consolidate into the three main arteries that supply the developing gastrointestinal tract: the celiac artery, superior mesenteric artery, and inferior mesenteric artery. The areas supplied by these arteries are used to define the foregut, midgut, and hindgut. [28] The surrounded sac becomes the primitive gut.
The greater curvature of the stomach forms the lower left or lateral border of the stomach. [3] Starting from the cardiac orifice it begins at the cardiac notch, forming an arch backward, upward, and to the left. A horizontal plane across from the cardiac notch encloses an area called the fundus of the stomach.
Blood supply to the stomach: left and right gastric artery, left and right gastroepiploic artery and short gastric artery. [1] Except at the pylorus where it is in contact with the stomach, it lies about a finger's breadth from the greater curvature.
The short gastric arteries are 5-7 small branches of the splenic artery [1] that pass along part of the greater curvature of the stomach [2] from left to right between the layers of the gastrolienal ligament, and are distributed to the greater curvature of the stomach.
Blood supply to the stomach: left and right gastric artery, left and right gastro-omental artery and short gastric artery. [ 2 ] The celiac artery and its branches; the liver has been raised, and the lesser omentum and anterior layer of the greater omentum removed.
The left gastroepiploic artery (or left gastro-omental artery), the largest branch of the splenic artery, runs from left to right about a finger's breadth or more from the greater curvature of the stomach, between the layers of the greater omentum, and anastomoses with the right gastroepiploic (a branch of the right gastro-duodenal artery originating from the hepatic branch of the coeliac trunk).
