Anatomical Variations of the Trunk of Origin and Terminal Branches of the Thoraco-Acromial Artery
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The thoracoacromial artery (TAA) is the main integumentary artery of the anterior deltoid region. It supplies part of the anterocranial wall of the thorax [1,2]. This region has been used for many years as a donor site for reconstructions of the neck and head, because it is close to the cervicofacial areas in terms of color, texture and thickness [3,4]. However, the thoracoacromial artery can be subject to anatomical variations, both regarding its birth mode than its terminal branching [4].

متن کاملCase Report: Absence of Thyrocervical Trunk
The thyrocervical trunk most commonly arises from the upper portion of the first segment of the subclavian artery, close to the medial edge of the scalenus anterior muscle and after short distance is divided to the inferior thyroid, transverse cervical, and suprascapular artery. This study reports important variations in branches of the thyrocervical trunk in a singular fema...
متن کاملAnatomical Study of Subclavian Artery and Its Branches
Background: The branches of right and left subclavian arteries are important in conducting of blood to spinal cord, posterior cranial fossa, base of the neck, thyroid gland, wall of the thorax and abdomen. The routine use of internal thoracic artery as a conduit in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery requires appreciation of the anatomical variations of these vessels. So far, there is not a...
متن کاملBilateral Variation of Internal Iliac Artery
Understanding anatomical variations can help physicians achieve better results in clinical practice. During routine dissection, we found variations in the branches of Internal Iliac Artery (IIA) of a 65-year-old Iranian female cadaver. The IIA ended by dividing to an unusual smaller anterior and a greater posterior trunk which was branched to the inferior gluteal arteries. Both pelvis and the u...
متن کاملAnatomical Variations of Vertebral Artery
Introduction: Vertebral arteries arise from the root of the neck as the first branches from the superior-posterior aspect of the subclavian arteries. They ascend the neck to enter the cranial cavity and supply blood to the brain. Methods: A total of 20 cadavers (in 10 years) were dissected for the study of variations in the origin of the vertebral artery. This study was conducte...
