Mesenteric Plexus Superior

The mesenteric superior plexus (Plexus mesentericus superior) is one of the three large plexuses of the abdominal cavity. It is located on the upper part of the abdominal cavity and connects the upper abdominal aorta to the superior mesenteric artery.

The mesenteric superior plexus consists of many vessels that provide blood supply to the intestinal mesentery and abdominal organs. The blood supply to the organs is carried out through the branches of the mesenteric superior plexus, as well as through the inferior mesenteric and superior mesenteric arteries.

Organs that receive their blood supply from the mesenteric superior plexuses include the intestines, pancreas, spleen, and liver. In addition, the plexus provides blood supply to some lymph nodes that are located in the intestinal mesentery.

Disruption of the blood supply to organs receiving nutrition from the mesenteric superior plexus can lead to various diseases, such as intestinal obstruction, pancreatitis, hepatitis or sepsis. Therefore, it is important to maintain the normal functioning of this plexus and monitor its condition in case of any diseases.



Let's touch on the basic principles of the anatomy of the superior mesenteric plexus

* The mesenteric plexus is usually called a set of intraorgan vessels and nodes that are located next to the small and large intestines, forming a special dense network that abundantly innervates these parts of the intestine. * Bigloe is three
