Normally, the trunk has not any branches for small intestine after duodenum. In cudavr of a man with 65 years old who was dissected with grants method, the following variations were observed: a common trunk which is raised from common hepatic artery and divided to following branches: branches for pancreas near the neck and body of pancreas, a branch for head of pancreas, branches for duodenum, a huge branch for jejunum and ileum from right side, a huge branch for large intestine from left side, a communication branch between right gasteroepiploic and coeliac, arise cystic artery from common hepatic artery. Since the current report is a rare case, which has not been reported in any anatomical and clinical literatures so far, it may be an interesting and important case.
