Brachicephalic R Sub clavian R Carotid L Carotid L Sub clavian |
|
|
R L Common Carotid
|

|
|
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
|
|
|
