4. The celiac (or coeliac) artery, also known as
the celiac trunk, or truncus coeliacus, is the
first major branch of the abdominal aorta. It is
1.25 cm in length, in a horizontal direction.
Branching from the aorta anterior to the upper
border of L1 vertebra (almost immediately
after entering the abdominal cavity through
the diaphragm at T12) in humans, it is one of
three anterior/ midline branches of the
abdominal aorta (the others are
thesuperior and inferior mesenteric arteries).
