Which classification system best represents the inferior mesenteric artery? An imaging-based analysis with a review of the literature

The results of the present study demonstrate that the most comprehensive but also specific classification system of the IMA was the McSweeney classification. It is hoped that the results of the present study may be useful to physicians performing various gastrointestinal and endovascular procedures, such as laparoscopic ligation of the IMA or embolization procedures.

Abstract

The results of the present study demonstrate that the most comprehensive but also specific classification system of the IMA was the McSweeney classification. It is hoped that the results of the present study may be useful to physicians performing various gastrointestinal and endovascular procedures, such as laparoscopic ligation of the IMA or embolization procedures.
