ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo observe the shape, size, position and vessels of greater omentum. To explore the design of greater omentum and clarify its clinical significance. MethodsThree fresh and 12 formalin-fixed cadaveres were dissected. All of them had no damage nor injury. 1. Macro-micro-dissection The shape, size and position of greater omentum were observed. The vessels of the greater omentum were studied.2.Lead oxide-gelatin injection technique and three-dimensional reconstruction.Results The length of greater omentum was(24.7±6.9)cm,the width was(28.3+2.8)cm. It could be divided into 3 types thin type,middle type and thick type, the occurrence rate was 33.3%, 46.7% and 20.0% respectively. The blood supply of greater omentum mainly came from the gastroepiploic arch composed of the left gastroepiploic artery and the right gastroepiploic artery.There were 4 main arteries of the greater omentum ①The right epiploic artery The external diameter at origination was (1.0±0.4)mm. ② The middle epiploic artery The external diameter at origination was(0.7 + 0.3)mm. ③The left epiploic arteryThe external diameter at origination was (1.2±0.4)mm.④ The accessary epiploic arteryThe external diameter at origination was (0.5 ± 0.1)mm.ConclusionAccording to the characteristic of the anterior arch and posterior arch,the position of the middle epiploic artery divarication and the method of spread,the greater omentum is divided into 5 types.It should be according to the characteristic, when the greater omentum is designed and clipped.
