Rare and Bilateral Variant Common Trunk from the Axillary Artery A Case Report
Dr Shilpi Agarwal, Dr Shilpi Garg, Dr Neelam Vasudeva
Abstract :
Accurate information regarding the arterial variations of the upper limb is significant during vascular, reconstructive and orthopedic surgeries and during evaluation of angiographic images. A bilateral variation in the anching pattern of axillary artery was observed during the routine dissection classes in the Department of Anatomy at Maulana Azad Medical College on a 40–year old female cadaver. On right side, a common trunk took origin from the second part of the axillary artery which divided into lateral thoracic and subscapular artery. Posterior circumflex humeral artery took origin from subscapular artery and coursed around the neck of humerus along with axillary nerve. In the left axilla, a common trunk took origin from the third part of the axillary artery which in turn gave origin to lateral thoracic and subscapular artery. Arterial anomalies in the upper limb are due to defects in emyonic development of the vascular plexus of upper limb bud.
