Schematic image of the blood supply to the human stomach: left and right gastric artery, left and right gastroepiploic artery and short gastric arteries [15] The lesser curvature of the human stomach is supplied by the right gastric artery inferiorly and the left gastric artery superiorly, which also supplies the cardiac region.
In anatomy, the gastroduodenal artery is a small blood vessel in the abdomen. It supplies blood directly to the pylorus (distal part of the stomach) and proximal part of the duodenum. It also indirectly supplies the pancreatic head (via the anterior and posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal arteries).
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.
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 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 gastrosplenic ligament, and are distributed to the greater curvature of the stomach. [1]
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.
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]
