Abstract

Introduction

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the arteries supplying the pancreaticoduodenal (PD) complex.

Materials and methods

The study was conducted on 15 fresh enbloc pancreatic specimens by latex injection method which enabled the visualization of the peripancreatic arteries and their minute branches.

Results

The gastroduodenal (GDA), anterior superior pancreaticoduodenal (ASPD), and anterior inferior pancreaticoduodenal (AIPD) artery was found in all the cases, whereas the posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal (PSPD) and posterior inferior pancreaticoduodenal (PIPD) artery was present in 93.34% cases. The ASPD artery originated from GDA in all the cases. Two types of variations were observed in the origin of PSPD artery and four types each in the origin of AIPD and PIPD artery. Anatomical and numerical variations were observed in both anterior and posterior arches, posterior arch being absent in 20% cases.

Conclusions

In the present study, an attempt was made to systematically describe the individual arterial configurations of the PD complex. The information provided here has important implications for preoperative planning of technically challenging surgeries and interventions around the pancreatic head.

ePA: Entlastung oder Mehrarbeit?

Die elektronische Patientenakte (ePA) soll das Gesundheitswesen revolutionieren. Mit über 2000 Krankenhäusern und mehr als 100.000 ärztlichen Praxen ist sie eines der größten Digitalisierungsprojekte Europas. Während die Politik die ePA als „Gamechanger“ feiert, zeigt sich in der Praxis ein anderes Bild.

Hölzerner Fremdkörper in der Orbita? Zuerst eine CT!

Besteht der Verdacht, dass ein Fremdkörper aus Holz in den Orbitalraum eingedrungen ist, spielt die Bildgebung eine entscheidende diagnostische Rolle. Was von CT und MRT zu erwarten ist, hat ein chinesisches Radiologenteam untersucht.

Diagnostik von Rippenfrakturen: KI schlägt Radiologen

Mensch gegen Maschine: Beim Erkennen von Rippenfrakturen in Röntgen- und CT-Aufnahmen entschied sich dieses Duell zugunsten der künstlichen Intelligenz (KI). Die Algorithmen zeigten eine höhere Sensitivität als ihre menschlichen Kollegen.

Ärztinnen überholen Ärzte bei Praxisgründungen

Bei Praxisgründungen haben inzwischen die Frauen deutlich die Nase vorn: Seit zehn Jahren wagen laut apoBank mehr Ärztinnen als Ärzte den Schritt in die Selbstständigkeit. In puncto Finanzierung sind sie aber vorsichtiger als die männlichen Kollegen.
