The variant arterial anatomy recognized during routine cadaveric dissection offers great learning potential. This imparts the concept of patient individuality and subsequent individualization of medical and surgical therapies and helps the surgeons for safe surgery and low morbidity. Objective of the study: To report on hepatic artery variations observed in the dissecting room and to find out the different pattern of hepatic arteries by cadaveric dissection. Materials and Methods: Twenty five human cadavers of SCB Medical College were dissected to study the source and pattern of hepatic arterial supply to liver. Results: Twenty four cadavers exhibited typical common hepatic arterial supply from the celiac trunk. Only one female body out of twenty five cadavers had an anomalous origin of common hepatic artery. Common hepatic artery originated from the superior mesenteric artery. Conclusion: Aberrant hepatic vascularisation should be assessed preoperatively to avoid fatal complications in hepatobiliary surgeries.&#13;
