Abstract

The common pheasant has been the subject of scientific research, although it has yet to receive as thorough analysis as other domestic birds. It has spread to many world areas, adapting to diverse environments. A study was conducted on 30 carcasses of female common pheasants. The aim of the study was a comparative analysis of the anatomy of vessels supplying the digestive system of the pheasant. An anatomical study of the pheasant's arteries revealed that the celiac artery originates from the right part of the descending aorta. Its branches include the proventriculus artery, which supplies vessels to the proventriculus and esophagus. This artery also supplies the spleen, duodenum, and the initial segment of the large intestine. Both the left and right branches of the celiac artery give off numerous branches that reach different areas of the intestines and stomach, forming a complex network of vessels. The cranial mesenteric artery is a crucial vessel supplying the small and large intestines, while the caudal mesenteric artery supplies the final segment of the large intestine and cloaca. Additionally, the pudendal arteries are responsible for vascularizing the cloaca and surrounding structures in this species of bird. These detailed anatomical observations are significant for understanding the blood circulation in pheasants.
