CARDIOVASCULAR: MAJOR ARTERIES
Neck, Head & Brain
Brachiocephalic Trunk (R)
The first artery to branch off the aortic arch that will then divide into the right
common carotid artery and right subclavian artery
Not easily seen on this model
Subclavian a.
R subclavian branches from the brachiocephalic trunkL subclavian branches directly from the aortic arch
Vertebral a. (R/L)
Basilar a.
Common Carotid a. (R/L)
R common carotid branches from brachiocephalic trunkL common carotid branches directly from aortic arch
External carotid a. (R /L)
Temporal a. (R/L)
Facial a.
Internal carotid a. (R/L)
Anterior cerebral a (R/L)
Middle cerebral a.
Posterior cerebral a.
Shoulder & Upper Limb
Axillary a. (R/L)
Axillary arteries branch off of the subclavians at
first rib
Brachial a. (R/L)
Right axillary becomes the brachial artery at the armpit
and splits at the elbow
Ulnar a. (R/L)
Ulnar artery branches off the brachial artery at the elbow
Radial a. (R/L)
Radial artery branches off the brachial artery at the elbow
Palmar (volar) arches (R/L)
Digital a.
Digital arteries branch off the palmar arch
Thoracic and Abdominal Walls
Intercostal a.
Phrenic a.
Suprarenal a. (R/L)
Arteries that run to the adrenal glands
(Technically there are 3: superior, middle, inferior)
Celiac trunk
Gastric a.
Splenic a.
Hepatic a.
Renal a. (L/R)
Superior mesenteric a.
Inferior mesenteric a.
Pelvis & Lower Limb
Common iliac a. (R/L)
Internal iliac a (R/L)
External iliac a. (R/L)
Femoral a. (R/L)
Popliteal a. (R/L)
Anterior tibial a. (R/L)
Posterior tibial a (R/L)
Dorsalis pedis a (R/L)
