The technique of obtaining pancreatic segments was studied in 60 mongrel dogs by removing the right pancreatic lobe. At the same time comparative surgical-anatomical examinations were performed for the detection of the vascular variations of the right pancreatic segment. In 83% of the cases the arterious and venous systems were suitable for gaining grafts (Types I-II). In 12% the segment was suitable for grafting only if the venous network had an optimal course (Type III), while in 5% the segment was unsuitable because it did not have a suturable arterial stump (Type IV).
