What artery supplies branches to the stomach and liver?
The celiac artery supplies branches to the stomach and the liver.
The celiac artery (or celiac trunk) is the first major branch of the abdominal aorta.
After about 1 cm, it divides into three branches.
1. Left Gastric Artery
The left gastric artery is the first (and smallest) branch.
It supplies blood to the lesser curvature of the stomach.
2. Splenic Artery
The splenic artery travels towards the spleen.
As it does so, it branches into:
(a) The left gastroepiploic artery, which supplies the upper greater curvature of the stomach, and
(b) The short gastric arteries, which supply the top portion of the stomach.
3. Common Hepatic Artery
The common hepatic artery is the sole arterial supply to the liver.
It branches into:
(a) The right gastric artery, which supplies the lesser curvature of the stomach, and
(b) The hepatic artery proper
The hepatic artery proper branches into the left hepatic (LH), middle hepatic (MH), and right hepatic (RH) arteries, which supply the corresponding areas of the liver.
(c) The gastroduodenal artery
The gastroduodenal artery leads into the right gastroepiploic artery, which feeds the lower greater curvature of the stomach.
