Lymphatic and vascular anatomy define surgical principles for bowel-sparing radical treatment of ileal tumors
Ileal tumors are irrigated through the TIA, which can be ligated without consequences. Lymphadenectomy should encompass the adjacent vessels (1st jejunal artery, ICA) and can include the central nodes (D3 volume) at the surgeon's preference. Preserving the adjacent vessels and the marginal artery is paramount for bowel-sparing surgery.
