This paper deals with the origin, arrangement and variations of the abdominal and pelvic arteries in the garden dormouse, Eliomys quercinus. Fourteen latex-injected specimens (10 males, 4 females) were analysed by dissection. Measurements from the aortic bifurcation to the origin of the major arterial trunks were taken. The results obtained are compared with those reported for other myomorph rodents. The general arterial system of the dormouse basically agrees with the patterns observed in other rodent species. However, Eliomys quercinus shows some distinguishing features, such as the particular origin of the left and right gastric arteries, the distal arrangement of the deep circumflex iliac arteries, especially the right one, and the source of the medial femoral circumflex artery as a branch of the femoral artery.
本文研究了花园睡鼠(Eliomys quercinus)腹部和盆腔动脉的起源、分布及变异情况。通过解剖分析了14只经乳胶注射的标本(10只雄性,4只雌性)。测量了从主动脉分叉到主要动脉干起点的距离。将所得结果与其他鼠形亚目啮齿动物的相关报道进行了比较。睡鼠的总体动脉系统基本与其他啮齿动物物种中观察到的模式一致。然而,花园睡鼠表现出一些独特特征,如左右胃动脉的特殊起源、旋髂深动脉(尤其是右侧)的远端分布以及股内侧旋动脉作为股动脉分支的来源。
