ATERIA GASTRICA DEXTRA Meaning and
Definition
-
"Ateria Gastrica Dextra" is a medical term used to describe the right gastric artery, which is an important blood vessel that supplies blood to the stomach. It is one of the main branches of the common hepatic artery, which arises from the celiac trunk, a major branch of the abdominal aorta.
The "arteria gastrica dextra" usually originates from the hepatic artery proper and travels along the lesser curvature of the stomach, running parallel to the "arteria gastrica sinistra" (left gastric artery). Together, these arteries form an arterial network known as the "corona gastrica" or "gastric arcade" that provides a rich blood supply to the stomach.
The Ateria Gastrica Dextra branches out into smaller vessels that penetrate the stomach wall, supplying oxygen and nutrients to the gastric muscles and other tissues. It is through this extensive blood supply that the stomach can perform its vital functions, such as digestion and the secretion of gastric juices.
Understanding the anatomical features and pathways of the Ateria Gastrica Dextra is essential for medical professionals, particularly surgeons, as it plays a crucial role in surgical procedures involving the stomach. Knowledge of this artery's location and distribution helps in minimizing the risk of unintended damage during surgical interventions and in ensuring proper blood flow to the stomach for optimal healing and recovery.
