Left subpancreatic transplexus exposure of the proximal abdominal aorta.
The authors report their experience based on the anatomical study of the celiac region and on the practice of abdominal multiorgan removal for transplantation. They particularly concentrate on the limits and the content of the celiac region of Luschka and particularly: -the position of the celiac axis in relation to the median arcuate ligament of the diaphragm, -the relations of the collateral branches of the abdominal aorta, -the place being taken by the celiac plexus and its situation in relation to the left renal v. From these elements, they describe an original transplexus surgical exposure of the origins of the celiac axis and of the superior mesenteric a. They show the importance of this approach in abdominal vascular surgery and during abdominal multiorgan removal in transplantation.
