Curvatures of the stomach

The curvatures of the stomach are the long, convex, lateral surface, and the shorter, concave, medial surface of the stomach, which are referred to as the greater and lesser curvatures, respectively.

Gastrointestinal tract

The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract, digestive tract, alimentary canal) is the tract or passageway of the digestive system that leads from the mouth to the anus. The GI tract contains all the major organs of the digestive system, in humans and other animals, including the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. Angular incisure and gastrointestinal tract are digestive system.

Left gastric artery

In human anatomy, the left gastric artery arises from the celiac artery and runs along the superior portion of the lesser curvature of the stomach before anastomosing with the right gastric artery (which runs right to left).

See Angular incisure and Left gastric artery

Left gastric vein

The left gastric vein (or coronary vein) is a vein that derives from tributaries draining the lesser curvature of the stomach.

See Angular incisure and Left gastric vein

Pylorus

The pylorus connects the stomach to the duodenum. Angular incisure and pylorus are digestive system.

See Angular incisure and Pylorus

Right gastric artery

The right gastric artery usually arises from the proper hepatic artery.

See Angular incisure and Right gastric artery

Right gastric vein

The right gastric vein (pyloric vein) drains blood from the lesser curvature of the stomach into the hepatic portal vein.

See Angular incisure and Right gastric vein

Stomach

The stomach is a muscular, hollow organ in the upper gastrointestinal tract of humans and many other animals, including several invertebrates. Angular incisure and stomach are digestive system.
