Figure 12  Methods of hepatic artery reconstruction during pancreatectomy with en bloc celiac axis resection. A: Direct end-to-end anastomosis between common hepatic artery (CHA) and celiac artery (CA); B: Graft interposition between CHA and CA; C: Direct end-to-end anastomosis between CHA and abdominal aorta (AA); D: Graft interposition between CHA and AA; E: Graft interposition between proper hepatic artery (PHA) and CA; F: Direct end-to-end anastomosis between CHA and left gastric artery [LGA, with replaced left hepatic artery (rLHA) from it]; G: Graft interposition between PHA and AA; H: Graft interposition between CHA and left iliac artery; I: Direct end-to-end anastomosis between PHA and middle colic artery. GDA: Gastroduodenal artery; LHA: Left hepatic artery; RHA: Right hepatic artery; SMA: Superior mesenteric artery.
