The celiac (or coeliac; ) artery, also known as the celiac trunk, or truncus coeliacus, is the first major branch of the abdominal aorta. It is 1.25 cm in length, in a horizontal direction. Branching from the aorta at thoracic vertebra 12 (T12) in humans, it is one of three anterior/ midline branches of the abdominal aorta (the others are the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries). ==Structure== There are three main divisions of the celiac artery, and each in turn has its own named branches. The celiac artery may also give rise to the inferior phrenic arteries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Celiac artery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
