Tener conocimiento de las variantes en el suministro vascular del tracto gastrointestinal es esencial, sobre todo en procesos quirúrgicos de mínimamente invasivos. Se describe la rara variante de la arteria cólica media doble – arteria principal cólica media derecha de la arteria mesentérica superior y arteria accesoria cólica media izquierda del tronco celíaco en un cadáver femenino durante la disección ante estudiantes universitarios. Una arteriografía selectiva preoperatoria es importante para determinar tales anomalías antes de realizar resecciones pancreáticas electivas.
Knowledge of variant vascular supply of the gastrointestinal tract is essential, especially in minimal access surgical procedures. We describe the rare variation of double middle colic arteries, the main right middle colic artery from the superior mesenteric artery and the accessory left middle colic artery from the celiac trunk in a female cadaver during dissection for undergraduate students. A pre-operative selective arteriogram is important to determine such anomalies prior to performing elective pancreatic resections
