Branches of Radial Artery 3D

  • Radial Recurrent Artery:
    • * Arises from the radial artery just below its origin. It ascends on the supinator and then between the brachioradialis and brachialis muscles.
    • * Anastomoses with the radial collateral branch of the profunda brachii artery.

 

  • Palmar Carpal Branch:
    • * Joins the palmar carpal branch of the ulnar artery and forms the palmar carpal arch.

 

  • Superficial Palmar Branch:
    • * Passes through the thenar muscles and anastomoses with the superficial branch of the ulnar artery to complete the superficial palmar arterial arch.

 

  • Dorsal Carpal Branch:
    • * Joins the dorsal carpal branch of the ulnar artery and the dorsal terminal branch of the anterior interosseous artery to form the dorsal carpal rete.

 

  • Princeps Pollicis Artery:
    • * Descends along the ulnar border of the first metacarpal bone under the flexor pollicis longus tendon.
    • * Divides into two proper digital arteries for each side of the thumb.                                                                                                        

 

  • Radialis Indicis Artery:
    • * Arise from the deep palmar arch or the princeps pollicis artery.
