Celiac Artery

The celiac artery, also called the celiac trunk, is a major branch of the abdominal aorta that supplies oxygenated blood to much of the foregut and is essential for abdominal organ function. It typically arises just below the diaphragm and divides into the left gastric, splenic, and common hepatic arteries, which distribute blood to the stomach, spleen, liver, pancreas, and parts of the duodenum. In biology and medicine, understanding this vascular network supports the study of digestive physiology, organ perfusion, and collateral circulation. Celiac artery imaging also helps identify stenosis, aneurysms, compression, and other causes of abdominal ischemia.

Blood pressure monitoring is one of the essential vital signs, and for a majority of patients, measuring it utilizing non-invasive techniques provides accurate values. However, there are situations in which the blood pressure requires more exact, specific, and reliable measurements.

Heterotopic Auxiliary Rat Liver Transplantation With Flow-regulated Portal Vein Arterialization in Acute Hepatic Failure

Auxiliary liver transplantation provides a temporary support in acute hepatic failure, until regeneration of the failing liver. The heterotopic auxiliary liver transplantation (HALT) with portal vein arterialization (PVA) renders sufficient liver function. We developed an analogous technique in the rat, to examine the influence of the portal vein arterialization on the morphology and function of the graft.

Direct Re-implantation of Left Coronary Artery into the Aorta in Adults with Anomalous Origin of Left Coronary Artery from the Pulmonary Artery (ALCAPA)

Surgical correction of ALCAPA is highly recommended, regardless of age or the degree of intercoronary collateralization. This protocol presents a technique for the direct re-implantation of adult-type ALCAPA into the aorta to re-establish the dual-coronary perfusion. Whenever feasible, direct re-implantation is preferred to other surgical correction techniques.
