[Age and individual characteristics in the structure of the celiac trunk in man]

The individual and developmental features of the structure of the celiac trunk were studied in 155 human corpses of either sex, age and habitus. The method used was the dissection preceded by the injection of vessels with roentgen-contrast masses and roentgenography. The individual and developmental features of the level of branching the celiac trunk off from the abdominal part of the aorta have been revealed, as well as the angle of its branching, the length and diameter of the celiac trunk and the form of its ramification.
