Variations of the arterial pattern in the upper limb revisited: a morphological and statistical study, with a review of the literature

M Rodríguez-Niedenführ et al. J Anat. 2001 Nov.

Abstract

A total of 192 embalmed cadavers were examined in order to present a detailed study of arterial variations in the upper limb and a meta-analysis of them. The variable terminology previously used was unified into a homogenous and complete classification, with 12 categories covering all the previously reported variant patterns of the arm and forearm.
