ARTERIAL SUPPLY OF MIDGUT & HINDGUT Dr. Ahmed Fathalla Ibrahim
SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY SUPPLY: • It is the artery of midgut • It supplies: • Duodenum: 2nd part (below biliary orifice), 3rd & 4th parts • Jejunum & ileum • Cecum & appendix • Ascending colon • Right 2/3 of transverse colon
SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY ORIGIN: • It arises as a single branch from the front of abdominal aorta • It lies at the level of lower border of L1 • Its origin lies behind body of pancreas
SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY COURSE: • It descends describing a curve with a concavity towards the right • It runs through the root of mesentery of small intestine TERMINATION: • It ends by anastomosing with the ileal branches of ileocolic artery (its own branch)
SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY RELATIONS: • The artery descends anterior to (crosses) the following structures: • Left renal vein • Uncinate process of pancreas • Third part of duodenum • Abdominal aorta • Inferior vena cava • Right psoas major muscle (+ right ureter) • On its right side (lateral to it): superior mesenteric vein
BRANCHES OF SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery: • Runs (as a single or double branches) in the groove between head of pancreas & duodenum • Supplies head of pancreas & duodenum • Ends by anastomosing with superior pancreaticoduodenal artery
BRANCHES OF SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Jejunal & ileal branches: • They are 12 to 15 in number • They arise from the left side of artery • They run between the 2 layers of mesentery of small intestine • Each artery divides into 2 branches which anastomose with adjacent branches forming arcades. Branches of arcades unite to form 2nd, 3rd & 4th series of arcades. Terminal arcades gives straight end arteries supplying jejunum & ileum • Fewer arcades supply jejunum compared to ileum
BRANCHES OF SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Ileocolic artery: • Arise from the right side of artery • Descends downward & to the right (anterior to right psoas major muscle) • Divides into: • Superior branch: supplies lower part of ascending colon & anastomoses with descending branch of right colic • Inferior branch: divides into the following arteries: • Anterior & posterior cecal • Appendicular (may arise from posterior cecal) • Ileal branches: supply distal part of ileum & anastomose with termination of superior mesenteric artery
BRANCHES OF SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Right colic artery: • Arise from the right side of artery • Divides into: • Ascending branch: anastomoses with right branch of middle colic artery • Descending branch: anastomoses with superior branch of ileocolic artery • Supplies ascending colon & right colic flexure
BRANCHES OF SUPERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Middle colic artery: • Arise from the right side of artery • Divides into: • Right branch: anastomoses with ascending branch of right colic artery • Left branch: anastomoses with ascending branch of left colic artery • Supplies right 2/3 of transverse colon
INFERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY SUPPLY: • It is the artery of hindgut • It supplies: • Left 1/3 of transverse colon • Descending colon • Sigmoid colon • Rectum • Upper (endodermal) part of anal canal
INFERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY ORIGIN: • It arises as a single branch from the front of abdominal aorta • It lies at the level of L3 • Its origin lies behind 3rd part of duodenum
INFERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY COURSE & RELATIONS: • The artery descends to the left side of abdominal aorta • It lies anterior to left psoas major muscle & left common iliac artery • On its left side (lateral to it): inferior mesenteric vein • Continues in the pelvis as superior rectal artery
BRANCHES OF INFERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Left colic artery: • Divides into: • Ascending branch: anastomoses with left branch of middle colic artery • Descending branch: anastomoses with sigmoid arteries • Supplies: left 1/3 of transverse colon, left colic flexure & descending colon
BRANCHES OF INFERIOR MESENTERIC ARTERY Sigmoid arteries: • They are 2 or 3 branches • They anastomose with: • Descending branch of left colic artery • Superior rectal artery • They supply: sigmoid colon
MARGINAL ARTERY • It is formed by the anastomosis between the colic branches of superior & inferior mesenteric arteries • It begins by anastomosis between ileal branches of ileocolic & termination of superior mesenteric artery • It ends by anastomosis between sigmoid branches of inferior mesenteric with superior rectal artery • From the marginal artery, straight end arteries (vasa recta)supply the large intestine
