Abstract
The arterial supply of the stomach is derived from all three branches of the coeliac artery, which arises from the front of the aorta between the crura of the diaphragm (Last 1984). It is a short wide trunk, surrounded by the coeliac lymph nodes and flanked by the coeliac ganglia of the sympathetic system.
