Origin of the inferior phrenic arteries[edit]

The sentence about these arteries' origins conflicts with the source article:

The left and right phrenic arteries supply the diaphragm, and come off the aorta.

They may arise separately from the front of the aorta, immediately above the celiac artery, or by a common trunk, which may spring either from the aorta or from the celiac artery. Sometimes one is derived from the aorta, and the other from one of the renal arteries; they rarely arise as separate vessels from the aorta.

Numerous superior suprarenal arteries[edit]

According to the Terminologia Anatomica, there are several superior suprarenal arteries, regardless of bilaterality. Even Gray's Anatomy states that "Each vessel (inferior phrenic on each side) gives off superior suprarenal branches to the suprarenal gland of its own side."
