“…In almost all studies the posterior gastric artery was defined as arising from the splenic artery or the superior polar splenic artery. Other origins were very rare and included the two cases of the coeliac trunk (Okabayashi et al, 2006; Okabayashi, Kobayashi, Morishita, et al, 2005), sixteen cases of the left inferior phrenic artery (Tang et al, 2010) and nineteen cases of the left gastric artery (Gupta et al, 2020). Loukas et al used a different definition to the other studies.…”

“…Gupta et al reported on the importance of recognition of the PGA during bariatric surgery. They reported that it is necessary to divide the PGA in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy to mobilize the fundus and in patients undergoing and laparoscopic Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass it is necessary to dissect or divide the PGA to facilitate firing of the longitudinal stapler (Gupta et al, 2020).…”

“…First of all, we would like to congratulate the authors on a well-written brief communication describing the anatomy of the posterior gastric artery (PGA) and its relevance in bariatric surgery [1]. Though this artery was first identified more than two centuries ago [2], it has not been described universally in the literature, and incidence varies from as low as 4% to as high as 99%.…”

“…In the RYGB group, PGA was noted in 91.9% (34/37) patients. Out of 34 times, the vessel was divided only thrice while the procedure was performed 31 times after retracting the vessel laterally [1].…”
