[Anatomo-clinical considerations regarding the celiac-mesenteric junction].

Aim: This work points out the access ways - both the classical ones and the ones less known and used - to the origin and the first centimeters of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA), underlining the advantages and disadvantages of each of them.

Material And Method: Our work is based on dissection of 30 human bodies and 200 selective arteriographies.

Results: There are two classical ways to access the first part of SMA: inter-duodeno-pancreatic and the left thoraco-abdominal ways.
