The right colic vein (RCV) and
middle colic vein (MCV) are defined as the tributaries from the marginal veins of the ascending and transverse colon, respectively.
Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy was performed following strictly oncologic principles with ileocolic, right colic, and right branch of
middle colic artery ligation.
Then divide
middle colic's carefully, mobilize right colon and divide ileocolic.
One patient with
middle colic artery pseudoaneurysm had history of grade IV pancreatic transaction due to abdominal trauma during a road traffic accident.
It gives off inferior pancreatico-duodenal,
middle colic, right colic, ileocolic, jejunal and ileal branches.
Ascending colon: Pericolic, ileocolic, right colic,
middle colicIsolating the blood supply on the
middle colic vessel makes the two vascular right colic and ileocolic territories dependent on it, rendering the blood supply in the most distant ileocolic territory tenuous.
There were no separate
middle colic artery arising from the superior mesenteric artery.
Reduction of the hernia was performed, ensuring preservation of the inferior mesenteric vein and
middle colic artery branches.
Branching from the right side of the main trunk of the superior mesenteric artery are three vessels--the
middle colic, right colic and ileocolic arteries--which supply the terminal ileum, caecum, ascending colon and right two thirds of transverse colon.
The
middle colic artery, as observed in all the animals, irrigates the large intestine, that is, the left colon and cecum, anastomising with the left colic artery (Fig.
