Abstract

The arterial supply, venous drainage and innervation of the pancreas of the one humped camel were described in detail. The arterial supply comes via A. hepatica and A. mesenterica cranialis, while the venous drainage is mainly to V. portae. The innerva tion of this organ is through N. splanchnicus major and N. vagus. The results were discussed with other domestic animals.
