AB  - The left colic artery generally emerges from the inferior mesenteric artery and then divides into ascending and descending branches. Arterial supply of the pancreas is provided by the superior mesenteric artery and the celiac trunk. During a routine cadaver dissection in a male body donor, two anatomical variations in the arterial pattern of the pancreas and colon were observed. An anomalous common trunk, originating from the superior mesenteric artery, gave rise to two branches: an accessory inferior pancreatic artery to the head of the pancreas, and the aberrant left colic artery. A comprehensive knowledge of vascular variations of this region is valuable in visceral surgery and interventional radiology. Hence, this case report may provide further anatomical knowledge for vessel management in the pancreas and colon surgical procedures.

N2  - Arteria colica sinistra genellikle arteria mesenterica inferior'dan çıkar ve ardından çıkan ve inen dallara ayrılır. Pankreasın arteriyel beslenmesi arteria mesenterica superior ve truncus coeliacus tarafından sağlanır. Bir erkek kadavranın rutin diseksiyonu sırasında pankreas ve kolonun arteriyel paterninde iki anatomik varyasyon gözlemlendi: caput pancreatis’e giden bir arteria pancreatica inferior accessoria ve atipik arteria colica sinistra. Bu bölgenin vasküler varyasyonları hakkındaki kapsamlı bilgi visseral cerrahi ve girişimsel radyolojide değerlidir. Bu nedenle bu olgunun, pankreas ve kolon cerrahi prosedürlerinin yönetimi için değerli anatomik bilgi sağlayacağı düşünülmüştür.
