Vascular Anatomy Of The Upper Arm

Anatomy Of The Nerves Arteries And Veins Of The Arm Upper Stock Photo The arterial supply to the upper limb begins as the subclavian artery. on the right, the subclavian artery arises from the brachiocephalic trunk. on the left, it branches directly from the arch of aorta. the subclavian artery travels laterally towards the axilla. it can be divided into three parts based on its position relative to the anterior. Alejandro maciel miranda and steven f. morris 11 vascular anatomy of the upper extremity 11.1 vascular anatomy of the upper extremity knowledge of the vascular anatomy of the upper extremity is obviously crucial to the treatment of a wide variety of hand and upper limb conditions. this chapter is essentially organized from “top to bottom.

Flashcards Shoulder And Arm Anatomy Arteries Axillary Artery The blood supply and lymphatic drainage of the upper limb covers the arterial supply, venous, and lymphatic drainage to the structures of the upper limb: the hand, forearm, upper arm and axilla. in terms of arterial supply, the upper limb has 5 main vessels, the: subclavian, axillary, brachial, radial, and ulnar arteries. Neurovasculature of the upper limb. major arteries of the shoulder, arm, forearm and hand. the upper limb is truly a complex part of the human body. in order to thoroughly understand its structure, the anatomy of the upper limb is broken into compartments, such as regions, bones, joints, muscles, nerves and blood vessels. The brachial artery is the continuation of the main arterial supply in the upper arm as it travels medially towards the elbow. it gives off the deep brachial artery and collateral branches that supply the arterial anastomosis of the elbow before terminating distal to the elbow by bifurcating into the radial artery and ulnar artery. Vessels. the vessels of the arms are part of the circulatory system, which provides nutrients to the tissues. the arteries deliver freshly oxygenated blood to muscles and bone. the veins return.

Click to view larger image. the cardiovascular system of the upper limbs plays the vital role of ensuring the adequate flow of blood to and from the shoulders, arms, hands and fingers. adequate flow of oxygenated blood to the tissues of the upper limbs is critical to their health through the delivery of oxygen, water, and nutrients. The proximal upper extremity arteries (subclavian, axillary, brachial, radial and ulnar arteries) were free of atherosclerosis, however, the distal angiography of the hand demonstrated numerous digital artery occlusions (all digits involved, but lesions predominant on i, ii and iv) and incomplete palmar arches.
