The mesenteric arteries take blood from the aorta and distribute it to a large portion of the gastrointestinal tract. Both the superior and inferior mesenteric...

The superior mesenteric vessels are composed of the superior mesenteric artery and the superior mesenteric vein. In human anatomy, the superior mesenteric...

compression of the left renal vein (LRV) between the abdominal aorta (AA) and superior mesenteric artery (SMA), although other variants exist. The name derives...

The inferior mesenteric ganglion is a ganglion located near where the inferior mesenteric artery branches from the abdominal aorta. Sympathetic (red)...

dissection that occurs solely in the superior mesenteric artery (SMA), typically spontaneously, and does not involve the aorta. Although aortic dissection can...

dissection usually includes the region from the bifurcation of the aorta to the superior mesenteric artery or the renal veins. The parietal lymph glands of the...
