The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of the different possibilities of the origin of the right gastric artery. The most frequent origin of the A. gastrica dextra was the A. hepatica propria (ca. 53%). Often the artery arised from the region where the A. hepatica communis divides into its branches (ca. 20%) or from the left hepatic branch (ca. 15%). In some cases (ca. 8%) it occurred as a branch of the A. gastroduodenalis and only in ca. 4% it arised from the A. hepatica communis. The findings concerning the frequency of the origin from the A. hepatica propria and from the A. hepatica communis are in accordance with the results obtained by some other authors. The observations concerning the frequency of the origin from some other arterial vessels (gastroduodenal artery, left and right hepatic branches and some other little branches) vary widely in the literature. As an incidental finding the observation of a truncus gastrolienalis and a truncus hepato- mesentericus has been made. Thereby the A. hepatica communis showed a flexuous course around the portal vein. In this connection the definition of the term "truncus hepato- mesentericus " is discussed.

Visceral artery aneurysms are rare findings in the practice of vascular surgeons. Their inaccessibility to physical examination, asymptomatic nature in many cases, but also an inherent risk of rupture that can be life threatening, make them a complex diagnostic and therapeutic problem. By presenting a case report of a ruptured common hepatic artery aneurysm the authors summarize basic characteristics of these aneurysms, as well as diagnostic and treatment options.

Objective: While the presence and number of metastatic lymph nodes (LNs) are important prognostic factors for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), there is no recommendation to specify metastatic regional LN localization in the current staging system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic effect of regional metastatic LN localizations in PDAC.
Material And Method: Metastatic sites of 101 consecutive PDAC patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were classified as peripancreatic, perigastric, hepatica communis, hepatoduodenal, and superior mesenteric artery.

Aim: To determine the rate of abdominal lymph node metastasis after radical surgery for esophageal cancer and define the radiotherapy target area.
Methods: Of the 1593 patients who underwent R0 radical esophagectomy for thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (TE-SCC), 148 developed abdominal lymph node (LN) metastases within three years of surgery. During that time interval, patients were examined by various imaging methods (enhanced computer tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission tomography-CT) at set time points.

Context National statistical reports in Jordan indicate a decrease in the total fertility rate along with a parallel increase in contraceptive use. The folkloric use of medicinal herbs in gynecological disorders has been growing in Jordan, despite of deficient reports on the evidence-based safety and efficacy of these practices. Objective The aim of this comprehensive article is to review medicinal plants with claimed ethnonpharmacological usage in various gynecological and pregnancy-related issues in Jordan, and to assess their evidence-based pharmacological studies as well as their phytochemistry.
