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

โฆ Synopsis
William Harvey's statement (1649) that a pulmonary circulation did not exist during fetal life focused the attention of scientists on the fetal circulation and perhaps was directly responsible for the many speculations relative to the condition of the pulmonary arteries during embryonic development.
Research on the anatomy, histology, anomalies and functions of the pulmonary arteries has been extensive, but quantitative information concerning prenatal growth has been encountered only once in the literature (Ode, '51). It is the intention of the present study to present accurate prenatal measurements of the two main pulmonary arteries and aorta and to relate this information to their mode of development.

The recurrent branch of the anterior cerebral artery is of considerable applied importance. The extracerebral course of the vessel has been studied in dissection of 12 brains. Numerous variations in the course of the vessel were found and these have been presented.
