Scientometric databases Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, and archives of scientific papers such as Google Scholar and Research Gate for the last 6 years (2018-2023) were used to form a study basis.\nConclusions: Based on the analyzed sources, blood supply variants to the pancreas do not influence the development of pathological processes. However, vein and artery features impact treatment choices and surgical outcomes. Main and additional pancreatic ducts, and the common bile duct, may be linked to diseases. Atypical pancreatic artery branching affects surgical tactics and increases bleeding risk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.36740\/merkur202501114","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,11]],"date-time":"2025-03-11T13:58:10Z","timestamp":1741701490000},"page":"100-107","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Correlation of the anatomical variations of pancreatic blood vessels and occurrence of diseases of pancreas"],"prefix":"10.36740","volume":"53","author":[{"given":"Anastasiya","family":"Spaska","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"AJMAN UNIVERSITY, AJMAN, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"22436","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"1.
