Abstract

Purpose: In this study, it was aimed to examine the relationship between the profunda brachii artery and the radial nerve at the entrance to and within the radial groove considering no comparable study was found in the literature.

Method: Dissection was performed in 44 upper extremities (21 right and 23 left) of 24 fixed cadavers used for medical education at Istanbul University, Istanbul Medical Faculty, Department of Anatomy.

Results: Profunda brachii artery was found to be a single artery in 39 extremities and a double artery in 5 extremities. In 27 cases with single PBA, the nerve was located superolateral to the PBA (Type A), and in 8 cases the nerve was located inferomedial to the PBA (Type B). In all 5 extremities with double profunda brachii artery, the proximal branch was superolateral (Type A) and the distal branch was inferomedial (Type B).

Conclusions: This research will support surgeons understanding how to better anatomically and radiologically treat humeral fractures and lateral arm flap applications.

肱深动脉与桡骨沟入口及桡骨沟内桡神经的解剖关系。

目的：考虑到文献中未见类似研究，本研究旨在探讨肱深动脉与桡骨沟入口及桡骨沟内桡神经的关系。方法：对伊斯坦布尔大学医学院解剖系24具医学教育用固定尸体的44具上肢进行解剖，其中右肢21具，左肢23具。结果：39例臂丛深动脉为单动脉，5例臂丛深动脉为双动脉。单侧肱骨干动脉27例，神经位于肱骨干上外侧（A型），8例位于肱骨干内侧下（B型）。5例双肱深动脉患者，近端分支位于肱骨干上外侧（A型），远端分支位于肱骨干内侧下（B型）。结论：本研究将为外科医生更好地解剖和放射治疗肱骨骨折及臂外侧皮瓣应用提供支持。

期刊介绍： Anatomy is a morphological science which cannot fail to interest the clinician. The practical application of anatomical research to clinical problems necessitates special adaptation and selectivity in choosing from numerous international works. Although there is a tendency to believe that meaningful advances in anatomy are unlikely, constant revision is necessary. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, the first international journal of Clinical anatomy has been created in this spirit. Its goal is to serve clinicians, regardless of speciality-physicians, surgeons, radiologists or other specialists-as an indispensable aid with which they can improve their knowledge of anatomy. Each issue includes: Original papers, review articles, articles on the anatomical bases of medical, surgical and radiological techniques, articles of normal radiologic anatomy, brief reviews of anatomical publications of clinical interest. Particular attention is given to high quality illustrations, which are indispensable for a better understanding of anatomical problems. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy is a journal written by anatomists for clinicians with a special interest in anatomy.
