    The radial collateral artery (another term for the anterior descending branch of the profunda brachii artery) is a branch of the deep brachial artery. It arises in the arm proper and anastomoses with the radial recurrent artery near the elbow.

  6. Radial artery - Wikipedia

    Neurogenic TOS includes disorders produced by compression of components of the brachial plexus nerves. The neurogenic form of TOS accounts for 95% of all cases of TOS. [21] Venous TOS is due to compression of the subclavian vein. [21] This makes up about 4% of cases. [2] Arterial TOS is due to compression of the subclavian artery. [21]
