The broad clinical utilization of the internal thoracic artery (ITA), including the role of its branches in supplying circulation to the sternum, requires explicit anatomic knowledge of this vessel. Fifty-six ITAs (28 right, 28 left) were dissected from their point of origins after injection with a
The superior thoracic and lateral thoracic arteries usually arise from the axillary artery as the first and second branches, respectively. Although anomalies have been described, no reports of a reversal of the order of origin have been found. In two cadaveric dissections, the lateral thoracic arter
The aim of this study was to evaluate the variability of the origin of the internal thoracic and vertebral arteries after a cadaver demonstrated abnormal origins for both vessels. The arteries were studied in 60 adult cadavers and measurements taken to adjacent structures. In one cadaver the right i
We present a case report of an abnormal course and branching of the right testicular artery, which was uncovered during routine dissection of the abdomen in our first year medical class. It arose from the anterior surface of the abdominal aorta and immediately divided into two branches; one branch c
