pancreatic duct in dogs

A duct that collects and carries secretions of the exocrine pancreas to the intestine. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the pancreatic duct is

A duct that collects and carries secretions of the exocrine pancreas to the intestine. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the pancreatic duct is

It sits in the trunk, within the digestive system. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.

What the pancreatic duct connects to

The atlas records 9 typed relationships for it, across 5 kinds of connection. part of digestive system, exocrine pancreas and organ, and 1 more.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the pancreatic duct. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as duct of pancreas, pancreas duct and ductus pancreaticus. Searching any of those names reaches this page.
