Variant Anatomy of The Portal Vein According to 3D Modeling Data

Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The study aimed to evaluate the variant anatomy of the portal vein based on computed tomography. Materials and methods. The material ‎was the results of 224 multispiral computed tomography of abdominal organs from the archive of clinics of Samara State Medical Universi-‎ty (Samara, Russia) for 2018-2019. Plug-ins were used in the Luch and Avtoplan programs to mathematically model and create 3D models ‎of the vascular bed. These programs make it possible to obtain 3D models based on multispiral computed tomography data. The portal vein ‎confluence variant and angle parameters formed by the trunk and roots of the portal vein were studied, considering the gender and age of the ‎patients. Results. The study found that type A confluence occurred in 45.5% of cases. Type B confluence was detected in 26.8%. Type C ‎confluence occurred in 16.5%. There were no statistically significant differences in the angles formed by the trunk and roots of the portal ‎vein in patients of different age groups and genders. Portal vein type A division was detected in 71.9% of observations, and portal vein type ‎B division was detected in 20.1%‎.
