title: Anastomoses between the coeliac and the superior mesenteric artery in radiological and anatomical material.
abstract: We tried to classify the anastomoses between the coeliac and the superior mesenteric artery into four groups: anastomoses in the pancreatico-duodenal region, Bühler's longitudinal anastomoses, anastomoses in the hepatic region and atypical cases. The possible causes of origin are shortly discussed.
