Abstract
Corrosion casts [40] of the splenic artery and its tree were used to study segmentation in the sheep spleen. Spleens (28, 70%) had 2 arterial segments, a right and a left. One spleen (2.5%) had a visceral and a parietal segment. Spleens (11, 27.5%) showed no arterial segmentation, the artery ramifying irregularly.
