Variations of celiac trunk vascular anatomy is common. We report a very rare case in which the middle colic artery was originating from the gastroduodenal artery. This variation was identified intraoperatively during a Whipple?s procedure for a tumor located in the pancreatic head of a 72 years-old male patient.
