title: [A study regarding the anatomy of the main arterial pedicles of the greater omentum].
abstract: Hepatic artera takes part to the greater omentum vascularization by the right gastroomental artera (most frequently as a branch of the gastroduodenal artera). The investigations on 100 anatomical specimens from adult subjects revealed a mean value of the artera length of 19.30 cm and a diameter of 1.5-3 mm. The lienal artera participates to the greater omentum vascularization by the left gastroomental artera (with a mean length of 10-18 cm and a diameter of 1.5-2.0 +/- 0.3 mm. The arterial arch of the large gastric curvature has a length of 45 +/- 5 cm; the functional anastomotic point is localized at 10-15 cm left size reported to the median line of the large curvature.
