A variation of a branch of the splenic artery was reported in a Taiwanese male cadaver during dissection in 1999. This artery arose from the splenic artery and ran inferiolaterally to the area of the left colic flexure. Since left colic flexure is a segment of embryonic hindgut and the splenic artery typically supplies the foregut, the condition in which an artery of foregut crosses midgut to supply an area of the hindgut becomes interesting.

Left-sided gallbladder (LSGB) is a rare anatomical variation where the gallbladder is to the left of the falciform ligament and ligamentum teres. Most commonly, it is discovered as an incidental finding at the time of operation (typically for cholecystectomy). We describe a case of left-sided gallbladder in a 71-year-old female.

We present the case of a 29-year-old male who, during evaluation for left renal colic, was found to have a 5.5 cm heterogeneous right adrenal mass on non-contrast CT, initially suggestive of a myelolipoma.

: This study aimed to determine the minimal effective dose of indocyanine green (ICG) required for accurately assessing colonic perfusion during laparoscopic colorectal surgery using a laser-assisted laparoscopic near-infrared (NIR) camera system. : In 15 patients with colorectal cancer undergoing right hemicolectomy, the left branch of the middle colic artery was preserved, and ICG angiography was performed in the transverse colon. To determine the optimal ICG dose, experimental doses of 0.
