Abstract In this article we present a rare variant in which the large intestine was vascularized by the inferior mesenteric artery. It was encountered during macro and microscopic dissection of the cadaver of a 63-year-old woman at a university department of human anatomy. In this case, the ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid colon and rectum were vascularized by the inferior mesenteric artery, whereas the small intestine, cecum and appendix were supplied by the superior mesenteric artery.

The level of ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) is a critical factor that can influence outcomes. The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare outcomes following high or low ligation of IMA. A systematic search was performed for relevant articles published between 2000 and 2020. Meta-analysis was performed using fixed-effects or random-effects models; 31 studies were included. Results show significantly lower rates of anastomotic leak, postoperative morbidity and urinary dysfunction with low ligation compared with high ligation. Though recurrence rates were similar, 5-year overall survival was longer in the low ligation group. Low ligation of IMA decreases anastomotic leak rates and overall morbidity. Addition of IMA nodal clearance to low ligation appears to improve overall survival in colorectal cancer.

The Impact

Abstract Background: This study is to analyze the impact on the level of Inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) ligation of Colorectal cancer surgery. The retrieval of lymph nodes (LNs) and anastomotic leakage was the main concern of this study. Methods: In this prospective study, the high and low ligation cases were selected. The retrieved LNs from roots of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and left colic artery (LCA) was sent for histopathological examination (HPE), irrespective of the method of ligation. The observation of HPE results and Anastomosis leakage were analyzed.Result: In the total numbers of 369 cases, 12 cases were cancer positive LNs at the root of IMA despite 349 harvested LNs. On another hand, just one case showed LCA positive LNs obliviously because just 12 cases were had harvested LNs at the root of LCA. where Two cases of leakage were seen in both groups over a three-month follow-up. Conclusions: This result signifies the importance of IMA root LNs clearance and concern of high ligation. However, the small number of cases demand further well-designed RCTs to make an evidence-based decision.
