High origin of radial artery – a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction Brachial artery is the continuation of axillary artery at the lower border of teres major muscle. It gives profunda brachii, nutrient artery to humerus, superior and inferior ulnar collateral arteries and muscular branches in the arm. It ends by dividing into radial and ulnar arteries at the neck of radius. Radial and ulnar arteries descend in the forearm pursuing a typical course and anastomose with each other in the hand via their branches contributing to the formation of superficial and deep palmar arches [1]. High origin of radial artery is noted in 14.27% of dissected specimens [2] and 9.75% of angiographic examination [3].

Case Report: A Rare Variation in Origin of Common Interosseous Artery: A Review of Anatomical Studies and Case Report
An unusual origin of the common interosseous artery is reported in the paper. During educational dissection of a 37-year-old male, a rare variation in the origin of common interosseous artery of the right upper limb was observed. The common interosseous artery directly separated from radial artery. The right anterior interosseous artery is continued from common interosseous artery. Anterior and...
متن کاملCase Report: A Case Report on Variation in Bifurcation of Brachial Artery
Variations in arterial anatomy are less frequent, contrary to the venous system, and most of these variations affect visceral arteries. Variations in the brachial artery are the most frequently reported and so far a minimum of six different patterns have been described. The most common of these patterns is the superficial brachial artery, which lies superficially to the medi...
متن کاملClinically relevant variations in the origin and course of the radial artery
Background: The radial artery is an essential artery supplying the structures in the forearm. Variations in the radial artery concerning its origin, course, branching pattern, and mode of termination have been commonly reported. The high origin of the radial artery from either brachial or axillary artery was detected in numerous studies. Clinically-radial artery is used in cardiac catheterizati...
متن کاملPaper: A Case Report of a Rare Variation in Arising Branches of Brachial Artery
Variations in the arterial pattern of the upper limb are abundant and diverse and have been observed frequently either in cadaver dissection or in clinical practice and reports. In the most of these reports, radial or ulnar arteries were commonly involved, which can be damaged during surgical procedures. This report presents a case of a rare variation in arising branches of brachial artery. Dur...
متن کاملA Case Report of Variant Origin of Left Vertebral Artery from Aortic Arch and its Embryological Explanation
Vertebral artery is the first branch of subclavian artery. It merges with the same artery of the opposite side to form basilar artery and becomes one of the important source of blood supply to the brain. Variation in the origin of left vertebral artery was found in 65 year old female during magnetic resonance angiography of the neck vessels. It originated from aortic arch and was longer as ...
