The medial circumflex femoral artery (MCFA) usually branches from the deep femoral artery (DFA). It may also branch from the femoral artery (FA). In this study 100 inguinal regions of 50 cadavers were investigated. In 79 extremities (79%) MCFA branched from DFA, while in 15 (15%) it branched from FA. In four extremities (4%) MCFA was found to be double; in each case one of MCFAs branched from FA and the other from DFA. In one of these four cases the lateral circumflex femoral artery (LCFA) was also double. In one case we found a common trunk of DFA and MCFA and in another case a common trunk of MCFA, DFA and LCFA. Clinicians must be familiar with the variations of this clinically important artery to improve their success in the diagnosis and treatment of pathologies in the region.
旋股内侧动脉(MCFA)通常发自股深动脉(DFA)。它也可能发自股动脉(FA)。在本研究中,对50具尸体的100个腹股沟区域进行了调查。在79个肢体(79%)中,MCFA发自DFA,而在15个肢体(15%)中,它发自FA。在4个肢体(4%)中,发现MCFA为双支;在每种情况下,其中一支MCFA发自FA,另一支发自DFA。在这4例中的1例中,旋股外侧动脉(LCFA)也是双支。在1例中,我们发现DFA和MCFA有共同主干,在另1例中,发现MCFA、DFA和LCFA有共同主干。临床医生必须熟悉这条具有临床重要性的动脉的变异情况,以提高在该区域疾病诊断和治疗中的成功率。
