The authors report their experience based on the anatomical study of t
he celiac region and on the practice of abdominal multiorgan removal f
or transplantation. They particularly concentrate on the limits and th
e content of the celiac region of Luschka and particularly: the positi
on of the celiac axis in relation to the median arcuate ligament of th
e diaphragm, the relations of the collateral branches of the abdominal
aorta, the place being taken by the celiac plexus and its situation i
n relation to the left renal v. From these elements, they describe an
original transplexus surgical exposure of the origins of the celiac ax
is and of the superior mesenteric a. They show the importance of this
approach in abdominal vascular surgery and during abdominal multiorgan
removal in transplantation.
