Abstract: (19251 Views) |
The medial circumflex femoral artery usually originate from the posteromedial aspect of the profunda artery (a division from femoral artery), but often originate from the femoral artery itself. This anomaly observed in the left pelvic region of a male cadaver. In this case, arterial variation described the existence of a common trunk for inferior epigastric and medial circumflex femoral arteries. This common trunk arose from the external iliac artery. The origin of the inferior epigastric and medial circumflex femoral arteries are explained on the basis of the embryologic development and their course and variations are compared with reports in the literature. |
