. The anatomy of the domestic animals . Veterinary anatomy. THE ARTERIES 751 the left part of the stomach, giving off a branch which anastomoses with the right gastric artery. The splenic artery gives off pancreatic branches, and reaches the ventral part of the spleen. It gives off the left gastro-epiploic and a gastro- splenic branch which passes to the dorsal end of the spleen, which it supplies, besides giving off twigs to the left extremity of the stomach. The anterior mesenteric artery arises close behind the coeliac. It gives off a common trunk for two colic arteries and the ileo-caeco-colic. The right colic artery is a small vessel which goes to the right part of the colon. The middle colic artery is much the largest of the colic vessels; it supplies the transverse colon and part of the right colon. The ileo-cseco-colic gives off ileal, caecal, and colic branches. Anastomoses are established between the colic arteries, and the ileal branch anastomoses with the last jejunal artery. The trunk is continued as the.
