Variations in Arterial Supply to Cecum and Posterior
Peritoneal Attachment of Cecum Anatomy
Anterior cecal and posterior cecal arteries originate from
ileal branch of ileocolic artery; appendicular artery from posterior cecal, Anterior cecal and two
posterior cecal arteries originate from arcade; appendicular artery from ileal branch
of ileocolic artery. Anterior cecal and posterior cecal arteries originate from arcade
between colic and ileal branches of ileocolic artery; two appendicular arteries,
one deriving from arcade, the other from ileal branch, are present. Anterior cecal and
posterior cecal arteries originate from arcade; two appendicular arteries, one deriving
from anterior cecal, the other from posterior cecal, are present. Anterior cecal and
posterior cecal arteries have common origin from arcade; appendicular artery from
ileocolic artery proper. Multiple arcades between ileal branch and colic branch of ileocolic
artery. Anterior cecal and posterior cecal arteries originate from these arcades;
appendicular artery from ileal branch.
