  2. Ulnar artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulnar_artery

    Forearm: Anterior ulnar recurrent artery, Posterior ulnar recurrent artery, Common interosseous is very short, around 1 cm, and gives rise to the anterior, posterior, and recurrent interosseous arteries and close to the wrist it gives off the palmar carpal branch which is the ulnar contribution to the palmar carpal arch and it also gives a dorsal carpal branch which is the ulnar contribution ...

  3. Superficial palmar arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superficial_palmar_arch

    The superficial palmar arch is formed predominantly by the ulnar artery, with a contribution from the superficial palmar branch of the radial artery.However, in some individuals the contribution from the radial artery might be absent, and instead anastomoses with either the princeps pollicis artery, the radialis indicis artery, or the median artery, the former two of which are branches from ...

  4. Allen's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen's_test

    Ulnar pressure is released while radial pressure is maintained, and the colour should return within 5 to 15 seconds. If color returns as described, Allen's test is considered to be normal. If color fails to return, the test is considered abnormal and it suggests that the ulnar artery supply to the hand is not sufficient. [2]

  5. Anterior ulnar recurrent artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Anterior_ulnar_recurrent_artery

    The anterior ulnar recurrent artery is an artery in the forearm. It is one of two recurrent arteries that arises from the ulnar artery , the other being the posterior ulnar recurrent artery . It arises from the ulnar artery immediately below the elbow-joint , runs upward between the brachialis and pronator teres muscle and supplies twigs to ...

  6. Palmar carpal arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmar_carpal_arch

    The two connected arteries are the palmar carpal branch of the radial artery and the palmar carpal branch of the ulnar artery. This anastomosis is joined by a branch from the anterior interosseous artery above, and by recurrent branches from the deep palmar arch below, thus forming a palmar carpal network which supplies the articulations of the ...

  7. Deep palmar arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_palmar_arch

    The deep palmar arch is usually primarily formed from the radial artery. [1] The ulnar artery also contributes through an anastomosis. [1]The deep palmar arch lies upon the bases of the metacarpal bones and on the interossei of the hand.

  8. Posterior ulnar recurrent artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_ulnar_recurrent...

    The posterior ulnar recurrent artery is an artery in the forearm. It is one of two recurrent arteries that arises from the ulnar artery , the other being the anterior ulnar recurrent artery . The posterior ulnar recurrent artery being much larger than the anterior and also arises somewhat lower than it.

  9. Common palmar digital arteries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_palmar_digital_arteries

    Alternative names for these arteries are: [1] common volar digital arteries, [2] ulnar metacarpal arteries, arteriae digitales palmares communes, [3] or aa. digitales volares communes. [ 4 ] Each of these arteries receive the corresponding volar metacarpal artery and then divide into a pair of proper palmar digital arteries ( q.v. ).
