Abstract
Forty corrosion casts of the splenic artery and its tree were used to study segmentation in the sheep spleen. Twenty eight spleens (70%) had two arterial segments, a right and a left. One spleen (2.5%) had a visceral and a parietal segment. Eleven spleens (27.5%) showed no arterial segmentation, the artery ramifying irregularly.
