Abstract
Knowledge of vascular variations, especially arterial variations, is very important for surgeons, radiologists and to the other clinicians. Awareness of the possible variations will reduce the risk of complications like bleeding during surgical procedures. Occasionally these anatomical variations of the arteries may result in erroneous interpretation of angiograms by radiologists. Sometimes these variations may become advantageous for the plastic surgeons in preparation of pedicle grafts. The Superficial brachial artery coursed superficially in the arm, and terminated as radial and ulnar arteries in the cubital fossa while the third part of axillary artery continued as profunda brachii artery and it terminated by giving twigs to muscles of arm. As per the Literatures the persistent superficial brachial artery that arises from the second or third parts of the axillary artery is found only in 0.26 cases1.
