The Pattern of Arrangements and Distributions of the Superior Mesenteric Artery in a Nigerian Population

This study was to ascertain the pattern of arrangements and distributions of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) in a Nigerian population. Seventy-five cadavers certified as Nigerians were obtained from the dissecting room of the Department of Anatomy, University of Calabar after ethical approval f...

Seventy-five cadavers certified as Nigerians were obtained from the dissecting room of the Department of Anatomy, University of Calabar after ethical approval from the Institution's Ethics Committee. Their abdomens and their contents were excise to expose the vessels. Based on the pattern of arrangements of the SMA, the cadavers were grouped into three (A, B, and C). Group A had 45 cadavers and this constituted 60% which were similar to the commonly documented patterns.
