Tortuosity of forearm arteries in adult Indian cadavers
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anatomy and Physiology - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Radial arteries are increasingly being used now a days for percutaneous coronary intervention, however this procedure encounters a high failure rate due to radial artery variations especially its tortuosity. Although clinical cases of syndromes like Guyon’s canal syndrome and arm vibration syndrome have been ascribed to the tortuosity of ulnar artery but a systematic study on ulnar artery tortuosity is wanting. The present study was conducted in Sixty one embalmed upper limbs, to report the tortuous character in different segments of forearm arteries
