Core Tip	Appreciation and study of hepatic arterial anatomical variability is essential to the successful performance of complex pancreaticobiliary procedures. An aberrant right hepatic artery (aRHA) represents the vascular anomaly encountered most frequently during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and, because of its course, is most susceptible to intraoperative damage and tumor involvement. When an aRHA is present, the challenge in peripancreatic malignant disease is to balance its preservation and the need to achieve oncological clearance. In this study, we analyzed the incidence of aRHA and its relationship with the operative complexity, occurrence of complications and oncological clearance in a large cohort of patients undergoing PD.
