Represents the distribution of the gastric artery upon the stomach. 6,The superior mesenteric artery, d, The pancreas. /, The spleen, g, The superioreoronary artery of the stomach, ft, The inferior coronary artery ; these, with abranch from the splenic artery, (e,) supply the stomach with blood, c, A branch ofthe coronary artery that supplies the duodenum with blood, e, The cystic artery,that ramifies upon the gall cyst, seen on the under surface of the liver. From this engraving it will be seen that the stomach,which is one of the most important organs in the animaleconomy, is supplied with blood, not only from its own coro-nary arteries, but from the arteries that pass to it from theliver and spleen. A peculiarity of these arteries, is that,though arising from three sources, they inosculate with eachother. In fig. 151, the arteries that pass to the different parts ofthe intestines, present also the anastomosing same arrangement is strikingly true of the art
