The cystic artery generally comes from the right hepatic artery. [1] Other variants of right hepatic artery includes: arising directly from the proximal or middle part of common hepatic artery, gastroduodenal artery, superior mesenteric artery, celiac axis, aorta, splenic artery, or left gastric artery instead of arising from proper hepatic ...
Mumoli's sign (also known as a "Playboy Rabbit" sign) is a radiologic sign seen in the normal liver.It appears as a rabbit-shaped image caused by the confluence of the middle and right hepatic veins as they merge with the inferior vena cava.
The hepatic duct lies in front and to the right, the hepatic artery to the left, and the portal vein behind and between the duct and artery. It also transmits nerves and lymphatics . Sympathetic nerves - these provide afferent pain impulses from the liver and gall bladder to the brain.
The cystic artery lies within the hepatobiliary triangle, which is used to locate it during a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. [4] [5] It may also contain an accessory right hepatic artery or an anomalous sectoral bile ducts. As a result, dissection in the triangle of Calot is ill-advised until the lateral-most structures have been cleared and ...
When superficial and deep branches of the cystic artery do not share a common origin, it is defined as a double cystic artery occurring with a frequency of 15%.. The deep branch consistently arises from the right hepatic artery which is generally also the source of origin of the superficial branch, however in some cases it has been found to initiate from the anterior segmental artery, middle ...
Absence of the portal system in a first trimester case associated with hygroma and aorto-umbilical fistula. (A): Transverse plane of the upper abdomen with color Doppler applied, showing umbilical cord insertion, stomach, the prominent hepatic artery and no afferent liver venous perfusion; (B): midsagittal plane reconstructed from a three-dimensional volume acquisition were the crown-rump ...
The common hepatic artery is a short blood vessel that supplies oxygenated blood to the liver, pylorus of the stomach, duodenum, pancreas, and gallbladder. [ citation needed ] It arises from the celiac artery [ 1 ] and has the following branches: [ 2 ]
Transient hepatic attenuation differences (THAD) are areas of enhancement during the arterial phase of contrast CT of the liver. THAD is thought to be a physiological phenomenon resulting from regional variation in the blood supply by the portal vein and/or the hepatic artery .
