Aortic Plexus Abdominal

The abdominal aortic plexus is a collection of vessels that arise from the abdominal part of the aorta and form its branches.

The aorta is the largest vessel in the human body. It is a spiral tube that runs through the entire body. In the abdominal cavity, the aorta can be divided into two parts: upper and lower. The upper part of the aorta is located in the chest, and the lower part passes through the abdominal cavity and exits the body through the pelvis.

The abdominal part of the aorta is called the abdominal aorta or inferior aorta. It consists of three main branches: the right and left renal arteries, which supply the kidneys, and the common iliac artery, which supplies the pelvic organs.

Several large branches arise from the abdominal aorta. One of them is the inferior phrenic artery, which supplies the diaphragm. Other branches are the right and left inferior adrenal arteries, which are branches of the abdominal aorta and supply the adrenal glands. Another branch is the inferior mesenteric artery, which gives rise to numerous small arteries that supply the intestines and abdominal organs.

Thus, the aortic abdominal plexus is an important anatomical structure that provides nutrition to the abdominal and pelvic organs. It plays an important role in the functioning of the body and can be damaged by surgery or other diseases.



The aorta is the largest artery in the human body, carrying blood from the heart to all organs and tissues. In the abdominal cavity, the aorta is surrounded by the aortic gland, giving it a convex shape, and the unpaired aortic ligament is braided around the gland. The aortic bed is divided into two parts: the left and right aorta. Each of them starts from the opening of the same name in the posterior wall of the upper part of the arches of both aortic openings. The right aortic leg bends superiorly and medially, where it forms two curves
