Aorta Arteries in order
R L Coronary
Brachicephalic
R Sub clavian
R Carotid
L Carotid
L Sub clavian
R L Common Carotid
Move up side of neck
Split at Thyriod cartilage of larynx
Internal Carotid
Enters cranial cavity at base of skull
External Carotid
Outside face and skull
Splits at ramus of mandible into Superficial Temporal Artery and Maxillary Artery
Subclavian Artery R L
Passes under clavicle and over 1st rib
Branches into Vertebral Artery
Continues into Axillary Artery after passing clavicle and 1st rib
Vertebral Artery R L
Passes in the Transverse Foramen of Cervical Vertebra
Enters cranial cavity through Foramen Magnum
Axillary Artery R L
Armpit or axillary region
Branches into:
1. Lateral Thoracic Artery (supplies front of thorax) and
2. Subscapular Artery (supplies posterior of scapula)
Continues as Brachial Artery passing Teres Major insertion
Brachial R L
Branches into Deep Brachial Artery (passes behind humerus)
Splits at Radial Tuberosity (front) into:
1. Radial R L and
2. Ulnar R L artery
Radial R L
Becomes very superficial at wrist (easy to feel pulse)
At wrist divides into:
1. Superficial branch
2. Deep branch
Ulnar Artery R L
Passes under Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
Larger than Radial R L
Splits at wrist into:
1. Superficial Branch
2. Deep Branch
Superficial Palmar Arch R L
Superficial to long tendons in palm of hand at level of thumb distal to DPA
Arterial loop created mostly by Ulnar Artery and less by Radial Artery
Deep Palmar Arch R L
Deep to long tendons in palm of hand
Arterial loop created mostly by Radial Artery and less by Ulnar Artery
Digital Branches R L
Radiate from Superficial and Deep Palmar Arches
2 kinds of Arteries in the Thorax
and
2 kinds of Arteries in the Abdomen
1. Visceral (supplies organs)
2. Parietal (supplies muscle)
(clue: KIND of structures it supplies blood to)
3 Major Visceral Arteries/Trunks in Abdomen
1. Celiac Trunk (above stomach)
2. Superior Mesenteric (below stomach)
3. Inferior Mesenteric (above the divide in aorta)
Originate from descending aorta
4 Parietal Arteries in Lower Extremities
At the level of the 4th Lumbar Vertebra, the descending aorta splits into:
R L Common Iliac, which divides into
R L Internal and External Iliac
back muscles
Internal Iliac R L
Supplies organs on floor of pelvis
ex. Urinary bladder, internal reproductive system
External Iliac R L
Passes under Inguinal Ligament and becomes Femoral Artery R L
Femoral Artery R L
Passes down medial side of thigh
After Inguinal Ligament branches into Deep Femoral Artery
After passing through opening in Adductor Magnus becomes Popliteal R L
Popliteal R L
Branches off to supply knee
Passes Popliteus Muscle it splits into Posterior and Anterior Tibial Artery
Anterior Tibial R L
Passes over interosseous membrane down anterior of leg
Passes dorsal surface of foot and becomes Dorsalis Pedis
Posterior Tibial Artery R L
Passes down posterior of leg deep to Soleus
Branches into Peroneal (Fibular Artery) on lateral side of leg
Behind Medial Malleolus divides into Lateral and Medial Plantar Arteries
Deep Veins of Upper Extremity
Have same name as Arteries
External Jugular Vein
drains venous blood from face and scalp
travels down surface of sternomastoid muscle and meets Subclavian vein
Internal Jugular Vein
drains venous blood from inside cranial cavity
travels down neck with Common Carotid Artery emptying into Subclavian
Brachiocephalic Vein
Receives blood from Internal and External Jugular, and Subclavian
R L veins join to form Superior Vena Cava
Superficial Veins Upper Extremity
Just under skin (subcutaneous)
Begin from venous network on dorsal surface of hand
Drained by Basilic and Cephalic Veins
Basilic
Medial Side
Empties into the First Part of the Axillary Vein
Cephalic
Lateral Side
Drains into Axillary vein between Pectoralis Major and Deltoid
Median Cubital Vein
Bridge between Basilic and Cephalic used to donate Blood
Deep Veins of Lower Extremity
Same as Arteries in lower extremity
Inferior Vena Cava
Receive blood from Common Iliac Arteries R L
Great Saphenous Vein
Drains Medial Side of Dorsal Venous Network
Medial Side
Before the Inguinal Ligament, it drains into Femoral Vein
Small Saphenous Vein
Drains Lateral Side Side of Dorsal Venous Network
Lateral Side
Drains into Popliteal Vein behind knee
Portal Vein
Formed by the meeting of the Superior and Inferior Mesenteric Veins (where Splenic Vein empties)
Directs blood from Intestines to Liver
Hepatic Veins
Collect venous blood after filtered by Liver
Send blood to Inferior Vena Cava (posterior to liver)
Azygos Vein
Small Vein travelling up right side of thorax
Receives Intercostal veins
Empties into Superior Vena Cava
Hemiazygos Vein
Similar to Azygos on left side of thorax
Crosses over to right side and empties into Azygos at 9th Thoracic vertabra
