The , also known as the '''celiac trunk''', is the first major branch of the
Abdominal Aorta .
It supplies oxygenated
Blood to the
Liver ,
Stomach ,
Spleen ,
Duodenum and the
Pancreas .
The celiac artery is the only major
Artery nourishing the abdominal
Digestive Organs that does ''not'' have a similarly-named vein (i.e., the
Superior Mesenteric Artery and
Inferior Mesenteric Artery each have veins, namely the
Superior Mesenteric Vein and
Inferior Mesenteric Vein ).
Blood from the celiac artery is drained by the
Splenic Vein and a number of smaller vessels from the
Stomach .
