Abstract

The popliteal artery is a continuation of the femoral artery and is the main arterial supply to the lower leg and foot. Variation in the branching of the popliteal artery typically occurs proximal or distal to where the vessel crosses the popliteus muscle. In the case of a routine dissection of a 92-year-old female cadaver, a variation of the popliteal artery was found where the branches are a posterior tibial artery and a common tibiofibular trunk. It is important to recognize the vascular variations that exist in the popliteal fossa to prevent any unforeseen complications during surgeries or procedures to the knee or lower leg.

腘动脉分支的罕见变异:来自胫腓总干的胫前动脉和腓动脉。
腘动脉是股动脉的延续,是小腿和足部的主要动脉供应。腘动脉分支的变化通常发生在血管穿过腘肌的近端或远端。在对一具 92 岁女性尸体进行例行解剖时发现,腘动脉的分支变异为胫后动脉和胫腓总干。认识到腘窝中存在的血管变异对防止膝关节或小腿手术或程序中出现任何不可预见的并发症非常重要。
