A blind-ending branch of celiac artery: a persistent embryologic vascular remnant?

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The celiac artery classically divides into three major branches, but it may have variations in branching pattern. Here we report a case of celiac artery having a blind-ending branch in a 54-year-old man who underwent computed tomography of the abdomen before the kidney transplantation surgery. Preprocedural assessment of celiac artery variations is critical for surgical and angiographic procedures involving the upper abdomen.
