Abstract:
In normal anatomy, the anterior tibial artery is typically the first branch of the popliteal artery before it becomes the tibioperoneal trunk. The normal course of the anterior tibial artery includes piercing through the interosseus membrane and continuing through the anterior compartment. It then continues onto the dorsum of the foot as the dorsalis pedis artery at the level of the malleoli. We describe a unique case of an anomalous origin of the dorsalis pedis artery from the peroneal artery. It is important for vascular surgeons to be aware of this variant while interpreting arteriograms of the lower extremity. It can be easily misinterpreted as an occluded distal anterior tibial artery with reconstitution of the dorsalis pedis artery from the collaterals.
摘要:
在正常解剖学中,胫前动脉通常是成为胫腓骨干之前的pop动脉的第一分支。胫骨前动脉的正常过程包括刺穿骨间膜并继续穿过前室。然后,它继续到脚的背侧,作为足背动脉在锤骨的水平。我们描述了一个独特的病例,即腓骨动脉的足背动脉异常起源。对于血管外科医生来说,在解释下肢动脉造影时注意这种变异是很重要的。很容易将其误解为胫骨远端前动脉闭塞,并从侧支重建了足背动脉。
