Abstract :

In the hand variation in the completion of the superficial palmar arch is quiet common but the variation we found is quiet different from routine variations. Having knowledge regarding new variations is very important for surgeons and radiologists who involve in the various procedures and surgeries in the region of hand that is the reason we ing forward and publish this variation. In our routine cadaveric dissection in the department of anatomy, Osmania Medical College, Hyderabad, Telangana state, india. We found this variation . In this study we found variant course and anching pattern of radial artey along with variation in the completion of superficial palmar arch. Persistant median artery completing the palmar arch and continuing along with the median nerve up to the common interosseous artery , where it appears as direct anch from the common interosseous artery. Common interosseous artery appears as trifurcating into anterior interosseous artery , posterior interosseous artery and median artery which accompanying the median nerve and completing the superficial arch. It is essential to know such type of variation also possible.
