Abstract

Profunda femoris is the largest branch of femoral artery.It gives lateral circumflex artery , medial circumflex artery and three perforator branches and continuous as fourth perforating artery.The present study was done on 40 embalmed limbs to know variations in the origin and branching pattern of profunda femoris artery.In this study highest origin of profunda was observed in one limb and profunda femoris took origin from the medial side of femoral artery along with medial circumflex femoral artery in another limb.In the same limb the lateral circumflex artery is the lateral branch of femoral artery. knowledge of variations of arterial system of lowrlimb is mportant before planning diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.
