    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descending_genicular_artery

    The descending genicular artery (also known as the highest genicular artery) arises from the femoral artery just before its passage through the adductor hiatus.. The descending geniculate artery immediately divides into two branches: [contradictory] a saphenous branch (which classically joins with the medial inferior genicular artery), and muscular and articular branches.

    They supply blood to the patella, together with contributions from the descending genicular artery, anterior tibial recurrent artery, and descending branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery. [2] [1] The descending genicular artery also known as the highest genicular artery is the only genicular artery to arise from the femoral artery and has ...

    Those vessels become the popliteal vessels (popliteal artery and popliteal vein) immediately after they leave the hiatus, [4] where they form a network of anastomoses called the genicular arteries. The genicular arteries supply the knee joint. The other two structures that are associated with the adductor hiatus are the descending genicular ...

    The patellar network (circulatory anastomosis around the knee-joint, patellar anastomosis, genicular anastomosis, articular vascular network of knee [1] or rete articulare genus [2]) is an intricate network of blood vessels around and above the patella, and on the contiguous ends of the femur and tibia, forming a superficial and a deep plexus.
