Short gastric arteries

Index Short gastric arteries

The short gastric arteries consist of from five to seven small branches, which arise from the end of the splenic artery, and from its terminal divisions. [1]

6 relations: Celiac artery, Curvatures of the stomach, Gastrosplenic ligament, Left gastric artery, Left gastroepiploic artery, Splenic artery.

Celiac artery

The celiac (or coeliac) artery, also known as the celiac trunk, or truncus coeliacus, is the first major branch of the abdominal aorta.

Left gastroepiploic artery

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).

Splenic artery

The splenic artery (in the past called the lienal artery) is the blood vessel that supplies oxygenated blood to the spleen.
