چکیده

Variations in course of the arteries are well documented. Knowledge of the variation of the arterial system is important during vascular and reconstructive surgeries, in the evaluation of angiographic images. During routine anatomical dissection of upper limb ,of adult male cadaver of 55 years in Department of anatomy, SNMC, Agra, we came across a variant origin of the ulnar artery, instead of terminal division of brachial artery it arose from the brachial artery at its lower 1/3 part ,also it followed a superficial course. Brachial artery in the cubital fossa divided into radial artery and common interosseous artery, also the anterior and posterior ulnar recurrent branches arose from the common interosseous branch instead of ulnar artery. Knowledge of this variation is important for anatomist, embryologist, radiologists keep pace with new emerging variations, also for orthopaedicians, surgeons for planning appropriately operative procedures involving this region.

Bilateral superficial ulnar arteries with an unusual arterial arch in the forearm

Introduction The ulnar artery is the larger terminal branch of the brachial artery and is usually given off in the cubital fossa. Along with the radial artery, it supplies the structures in the forearm and hand, as well as the elbow and wrist joints. The superficial ulnar artery (SUA) is a rare variation of the ulnar artery. It usually arises higher up, either in the axilla or the arm, and runs...

Paper: 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...

Unilateral high origin of ulnar artery with variant bifurcation of brachial artery : a case report

Introduction Usually the ulnar artery arises as one of the two terminal branches of brachial artery in the cubital fossa, which in turn gives rise to common interosseous artery in the upper forearm. Ulnar artery continues as superficial palmar arch in the hand by joining with superficial palmar branch of radial artery [1]. The term superficial ulnar artery is given when it arises from axillary ...

The Absence of Superficial Palmar Arch with Persistence Median Artery: A Case Report

The prominence of the hand function is underlined fundamentally by its rich vascular system. The superficial palmar arch incredibly provides hand with the blood supply, which is normally formed by the ulnar artery and superficial palmar branch of the radial artery. In the current case, the unilateral absence of superficial palmar arch with the rare presence of the median artery was reported, wh...

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...
