AbstractDuring routine dissection of abdomen for undergraduate students in Yenepoya Medical College, a male cadaver presented with variation in disposition of large intestine and inferior mesenteric artery. Caecum and appendix were present in the right lumbar region. The descending colon crossed the median plane in front of great vessels to the right side and then it continued as sigmoid colon in the right iliac fossa. Inferior mesenteric artery arose from right side of abdominal aorta to supply the left one third of ascending colon, descending colon and sigmoid colon.

Abstract Background This case report demonstrates the value of IMPEDE-FX plugs in an embolization procedure of a false lumen of an infrarenal post-dissection aneurysm. Case presentation A 69-year-old patient was treated with mitral valve replacement, complicated by a Stanford type-A dissection. After 9 years he presented with an enlarging infrarenal post-dissection aneurysm. The false lumen was embolized using multiple IMPEDE-FX plugs as part of the treatment in addition to embolization of the inferior mesenteric artery and overstenting of the re-entry in the right iliac artery. At 15 months the CTA showed a fully thrombosed false lumen and remodeling of the true lumen. Conclusions The false lumen of an infrarenal post-dissection aneurysm can successfully be embolized using IMPEDE-FX embolization plugs as part of the treatment strategy. Prospective trials on patients with non-thrombosed false lumina are indicated.

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.

La disección cuidadosa del tercio posterior de la parte superficial de la glándula salival submandibular es uno de los pasos quirúrgicos esenciales en la extirpación endoscópica glandular, evitando daños en la arteria facial. Un buen conocimiento de la poco común relación entre la arteria facial y la glándula salival submandibular es de vital importancia para llevar a cabo de forma eficiente y segura la extirpación de la glándula submandibular. Las variaciones del patrón de ramificación de la arteria facial son bien conocidas y han sido expuestas en el pasado. Sin embargo, las variaciones en su origen y trayectoria son poco frecuentes. Durante una rutinaria disección de cabeza y cuello para los estudiantes universitarios de Medicina, observamos la inusual trayectoria de la arteria facial en el triángulo digástrico derecho en un cadáver de un varón de origen indio de aproximadamente 60 años. La arteria facial derecha se originó de la común lingual-facial del tronco por encima del nivel del asta mayor del hueso hioides, y luego atravesar a través de la sustancia de la parte superficial de la glándula submandibular, sin la formación de un bucle. Después la arteria entraba en la cara por el ángulo anteroinferior del masetero. A continuación, en su trayectoria intraglandular, esta arteria mostraba pequeñas ramificaciones glandulares.  Careful dissection of the posterior one third of the superficial part of the submandibular salivary gland is one of the essential surgical steps in endoscopic glandular excision, to avoid injury to the facial artery. A sound knowledge of unusual relationship of the facial artery with the submandibular salivary gland is essentially important to perform the safe and efficient submandibular gland excision. Different types of variations in the branching pattern of the facial artery have been reported in the past. However, variations in the origin and course of the facial artery are very rare. During the routine head and neck dissection for the medical undergraduate students, we observed an unusual course of the facial artery in the right digastric triangle of an approximately 60-year-old male cadaver of Indian origin. The right facial artery originated from the common lingual-facial trunk above the level of the greater horn of the hyoid bone, and then it traversed through the substance of superficial part of the submandibular salivary gland without forming a loop. Then this artery entered the face at the antero-inferior angle of the masseter. Further, in its intraglandular course this artery gave few small glandular branches

Abstract Background Colorectal cancer and peripheral artery disease are common conditions in older adults and may coexist in this population. Lymph node dissection along the inferior mesenteric artery is a vital procedure in cases of left-sided colorectal cancer. However, the inferior mesenteric artery may show a collateral blood pathway in rare cases of peripheral artery disease. We report a case of advanced sigmoid colon cancer in which the lower limbs received inferior mesenteric artery flow owing to asymptomatic peripheral artery disease. The possibility of catastrophic lower-limb ischemia because of complete mesenteric excision with ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery was a matter of concern in this case. Case presentation A 73-year-old man with asymptomatic peripheral artery disease was diagnosed with stage IIIB advanced sigmoid colon cancer. Angiography using a balloon-occlusion catheter revealed that his lower limbs received prominent inferior mesenteric artery blood flow through a collateral pathway. Therefore, interventional radiologists and cardiovascular surgeons evaluated the indications for endovascular stents or bypass grafts. The patient also had dilated cardiomyopathy, so the cardiovascular physicians evaluated his tolerance in the worst-case scenario of a colorectal anastomotic leak. The patient underwent axillofemoral artery bypass and two-stage laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy without anastomosis. The postoperative course was uneventful, and he resumed his job within a month after the resection. Conclusions Although collateral flow from the inferior mesenteric artery is rare in patients with peripheral artery disease, a few case reports have described fatal lower-limb ischemia following anterior resection. The perioperative multidisciplinary evaluation enabled us to understand the patient’s condition and risks, and allowed successful cancer treatment without ischemia of the lower limbs.

AbstractIn unusual cases of malrotation or incomplete rotation of caecum , the appendix is not located in the lower right quadrant. When the caecum is high [subhepatic caecum] the appendix is located in the right hypochondriac region and the pain in these cases is located there, not in the lower right quadrant. In this position , the symptoms and signs of acute appendicitis may mimic acute cholecystitis, diagnosis in such cases is a great diagnostic challenge. The author observed this less frequent anomaly in a middle aged male cadaver. After opening the abdomen while tracing peritoneal reflections abnormality was identified. The caecum and appendix were present in relation with inferior surface of liver. Embryologically, the caecal swelling appears as a small conical dilation of the caudal limb of primitive intestinal loop and it is the last part of the gut to reenter the abdominal cavity. It is temporarily located in the right upper quadrant directly below the right lobe of liver. From here it descends into the right iliac fossa. The failure to descend leads to subhepatic caecum.
