This comprehensive review combines anatomical, radiological, and surgical evidence on arterial and venous variations in the stomach. The left gastric artery, traditionally the first branch of the coeliac trunk, often shows variants such as a direct aortic origin or association with an abnormal left hepatic artery. The right gastric artery most frequently arises from the proper hepatic artery, but its origin can vary significantly. The gastroepiploic arteries exhibit diversity in their origin, size, and connection patterns, with occasional duplication or absence. Additional vessels, including the posterior gastric artery and the short gastric arteries, also contribute to variations in arterial supply. Venous drainage largely follows the arterial pattern. The left and right gastric veins and the gastroepiploic venous arcade are major routes, while variants of the left gastric vein and the gastrocolic trunk (Henle\u2019s trunk) contribute to complexity through different convergence patterns. These vascular variations have significant clinical implications, as they impact the safety of D2 lymphadenectomy, the risk of ischemic complications during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, the success of gastric conduit formation in esophagectomy, and the effectiveness of transarterial embolization for upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Preoperative vascular mapping with multidetector computed tomography angiography and 3D reconstruction reliably defines individual anatomy, allowing for customized surgical planning and reducing operative risks. Recognizing both common and rare gastric vascular variants is essential for safe and effective surgical and endovascular management of gastric disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics15222896","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,17]],"date-time":"2025-11-17T15:38:09Z","timestamp":1763393889000},"page":"2896","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["The Blood Supply of the Stomach: Anatomical and Surgical Considerations"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-0122-2436","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"George","family":"Triantafyllou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 11527 Athens, Greece"},{"name":"\u201dVARIANTIS\u201d Research Laboratory, Department of Clinical Anatomy, Mazovian Academy in Plock, 09-400 Plock, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7727-7804","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Orestis","family":"Lyros","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Fourth Department of Surgery, Attikon University Hospital, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 12462 Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7046-0112","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dimitrios","family":"Schizas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"First Department of Surgery, Laikon University Hospital, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 11527 Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0355-0417","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nikolaos","family":"Arkadopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Fourth Department of Surgery, Attikon University Hospital, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 12462 Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-5974-0599","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fotis","family":"Demetriou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 11527 Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8559-8969","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"George","family":"Tsakotos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 11527 Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandros","family":"Samolis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 11527 Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4831-8005","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Piagkou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, School of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 11527 Athens, Greece"},{"name":"\u201dVARIANTIS\u201d Research Laboratory, Department of Clinical Anatomy, Mazovian Academy in Plock, 09-400 Plock, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Standring, S., Anand, N., Birch, R., Collins, P., Crossman, A., Gleeson, M., Jawaheer, G., Smith, A., Spratt, J., and Stringer, M.
