Anatomical variations of the celiac trunk and its branches are particularly important from a surgical perspective due to their relationships with surrounding structures. We report here a particularly rare variant involving absence of the celiac trunk in association with trifurcation of the common hepatic artery. These variations were found in an adult male cadaver. We perform a review of the literature and discuss the clinical and embryological significance of these variations. Recognition of celiac trunk and hepatic artery variations is of utmost importance to surgeons and radiologists because multiple variations can lead to undue complications.

“…However since the first report of Saint-Hillaire only 31 reported cases of such variation have been demonstrated by Iacob et al 2014 [25]. Since then 4 additional cases have been reported to the best of our knowledge [22][23][24]26]. The majority of these cases reported worldwide were observed during anatomical dissections in cadaveric studies, while others were detected by imaging studies.…”

Agenesis of the coeliac trunk: a case report and review of the literature

Vascular anatomical variations of the abdomen are very common. Awareness of these variations is of paramount importance in clinical practice mainly in achieving best results in minimal invasive or surgical vascular procedures. From surgical point of view, the preoperative knowledge of vascular anatomy and the relations to the surrounding structures and tissues aims to minimize inadvertent complications. Agenesis of the celiac trunk is one of the rare anatomical variations of the abdominal aorta. Limited number of cases have been reported in the medical literature, most of which are based on angiographic and cadaveric studies of adult humans. In this paper, we report a case of absence of the celiac trunk that has been detected as a incidental radiological finding in a female patient, that was admitted with abdominal pain.
