The right renal vein is situated posterior to the descending part of the duodenum. [1] ... in front of and one behind the aorta this is called a circumaortic renal ...
It is covered, anteriorly, by the lesser omentum and stomach, behind which are the branches of the celiac artery and the celiac plexus; below these, by the lienal vein (splenic vein), are the pancreas, the left renal vein, the inferior part of the duodenum, the mesentery, and the aortic plexus.
Due to the anatomical position of the aorta, the inferior vena cava, and the kidneys, the right renal artery is normally longer than the left renal artery. [1] [6] The right passes behind the inferior vena cava, the right renal vein, the head of the pancreas, and the descending part of the duodenum. It’s somewhat lower than the left one.
The anterior superior pancreaticoduodenal vein drains into the right gastroepiploic vein, as do the veins of the lower first part of the duodenum and the pylorus (subpyloric veins). The upper first part of the duodenum is drained by suprapyloric veins, which can drain into the portal vein or the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal vein ...
Bounded by the posterior layer of peritoneum and the anterior leaf of the renal fascia. It contains the following structures: Pancreas; Ascending and descending colon; Duodenum; Posterior pararenal space. Bounded by the posterior leaf of the renal fascia and the muscles of the posterior abdominal wall.
the third part of the duodenum, a segment of the small intestines (can be compressed by the SMA at this location, leading to superior mesenteric artery syndrome). uncinate process of pancreas - this is a small part of the pancreas that hooks around the SMA. The SMA typically runs to the left of its associated vein, the superior mesenteric vein ...
The duodenojejunal flexure is surrounded by the suspensory muscle of the duodenum. [4]: 274 It is retroperitoneal, so is less mobile than the jejunum that comes after it, helping to stabilise the jejunum. [5] The duodenojejunal flexure lies in front of the left psoas major muscle, the left renal artery, and the left renal vein.
The artery supplies the anterior and posterior sides of the duodenum and head of pancreas, with the anterior branch supply the anterior surface and similarly for the posterior. The artery supplies the part of the duodenum proximal to the level of the major duodenal papilla of the descending part of the duodenum. [3]
