Arteria colica dextra
The arteria colica dextra ("right large intestinal artery ") arises either directly from the lower intestinal artery ( arteria mesenterica superior or cranialis) or in the form of a common trunk with the arteria ileocolica . It runs in front of the arteria ovarica or arteria testicularis to the ascending part of the colon (ascending colon). There it divides into a descending branch ( ramus descendens ), which anastomoses with the arteria ileocolica , and an ascending branch ( ramus ascendens ), which connects to the arteria colica media . The nodes lymphoidei colici dextri lie along the arteria colica dextra .
The arteria colica dextra supplies the ascending part of the colon.
