Abstract

Background: The common femoral artery is a chief source of blood supply to the lower limb. Variations in its anatomy, like its absence, high level commencement of the deep femoral artery (DFA) with a superficial course, are unusual. The knowledge of such variations may have substantial clinical applications, specifically in vascular surgical procedures, catheterizations, and diagnostic or interventional radiology.

Case report: During femoral triangle dissection of a 78-years female cadaver, absence of common femoral artery, commencement of DFA at the inguinal ligament level, following a superficial path contrary to its name was observed bilaterally. The exterior diameter of superficial and DFA were 5 mm, 4 mm and 6 mm, 4 mm respectively on the right and left side.

Conclusions: Awareness of such variations is essential for interventional radiologists, vascular, orthopaedic, plastic & reconstructive surgeons to plan and execute interventional and surgical procedures effectively and for Anatomist for successful embalming.

双侧股总动脉缺失，股深动脉起源高且走向浅：罕见病例报告。

背景：股总动脉是下肢血液供应的主要来源。股总动脉解剖结构的变异，如股总动脉缺失、股深动脉（DFA）高位起始、走向浅表等，并不常见。了解这些变异可能会有很大的临床应用价值，特别是在血管外科手术、导管插入术、诊断或介入放射学方面：病例报告：在对一具 78 岁女性尸体进行股三角解剖时，观察到双侧股总动脉缺失，DFA 从腹股沟韧带水平开始，走浅表路径，与其名称相反。左右两侧浅表动脉和 DFA 的外径分别为 5 毫米、4 毫米和 6 毫米、4 毫米：对于介入放射科医生、血管科医生、整形外科医生、整形与重建外科医生来说，了解这些变异对于有效计划和执行介入和外科手术以及解剖学家成功进行防腐处理至关重要。

期刊介绍： Anatomy is a morphological science which cannot fail to interest the clinician. The practical application of anatomical research to clinical problems necessitates special adaptation and selectivity in choosing from numerous international works. Although there is a tendency to believe that meaningful advances in anatomy are unlikely, constant revision is necessary. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, the first international journal of Clinical anatomy has been created in this spirit. Its goal is to serve clinicians, regardless of speciality-physicians, surgeons, radiologists or other specialists-as an indispensable aid with which they can improve their knowledge of anatomy. Each issue includes: Original papers, review articles, articles on the anatomical bases of medical, surgical and radiological techniques, articles of normal radiologic anatomy, brief reviews of anatomical publications of clinical interest. Particular attention is given to high quality illustrations, which are indispensable for a better understanding of anatomical problems. Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy is a journal written by anatomists for clinicians with a special interest in anatomy.
