(B) Splenic artery with a tortuous trajectory. 1. celiac trunk, 2. common hepatic artery, 3. left gastric artery, 4. splenic artery, 5. branches of the first order, 6. spleen, 7. pancreas, 8. duodenum. (C) Splenic artery with a serpentine trajectory. 1. celiac trunk, 2. splenic artery, 3. common hepatic artery, 4. left gastric artery, 5. superior mesenteric artery, 6. superior pole artery, 7. splenic vein, 8. pancreas, 9. spleen, 10. aorta.
