What’s the difference between the Right Subclavian/Common Carotid As. and the Left Subclavian/Common Carotid As.?
Right Subclavian A. and Right Common Carotid A. both come off the Brachiocephalic trunk

What is the order of arteries that come off the Left Subclavian Artery?
Vertebral A.
Internal Thoracic A.
Thyrocervical Trunk
Costocervical Trunk
Dorsal Scapular A.
Remember: VITamin C and D
What are the branches off the Thyrocervical Trunk?
What structures do each supply?
Inferior Thyroid A. supplies Thyroid Gland
Suprascapular A supplies Supraspinatus M. and Infraspinatus M.
Transverse Cervical A. supplies Trapezius M.
Remember: Inferior Super Trap
The Rhomboid Muscles and LEvator Scapulae are innervated by what A. off the Left Subclavian A.?
Dorsal Scapular A.
If the Dorsal Scapular A. arises from the Transverse Cervical A. it is known as the ________ of the t=Transverse Cervical A.
If the Dorsal Scapular A. arises from the Transverse Cervical A. it is known as the Deep Branch of the t=Transverse Cervical A.
Which of the following branches of the Thyrocervical Trunk can branch variably and become a Deep Branch and Superificial Branch? What nerve would the superficial branch travel with? What A. would the Deep Branch Replace and supply?
A. Inferior Thyroid A.
B. Suprascapular A.
C. Transverse Cervical A.
D. None of the above
Transverse Cervical A.
Superficial Branch would travel with Spinal Accessory N. to the Trapezius M.
Deep Branch would replace the Dorsal Scapular A. and supply the Rhomboid Ms. and Levator Scapulae
The Costocervical Trunk of the Left Subclavian A. gives off what two A.?
Deep Cervical A.
Supreme Intercostal A.
Remeber: COSTco sales are Deep Supreme
The Vertebral A. travels superiorly and gives off Anterior Spinal A. and Posterior Spinal A.
What direction do these two arteries of the Vertebral A. travel along the spinal cord?
What artery does the Anterior Spinal A. give off, and how much of the spinal cord does it supply?
Inferiorly
Sulcal A. supplies 2/3 of Spinal Cord
The Inferior Thyroid A. comes of the Thyrocervical Trunk, and gives off what A. ?
Ascending Cervical A.
The Latissimus Dorsi is supplied by what Artery?
Thoracodorsal A.
(Subclavian A. –> Axillary –> Subscapular A. –> Thoracodorsal A. )

Posterior Intercostal A.
Subcostal A.
Lumbar A.
Iliolumbar A.
Lateral Sacral A.
Lumbar A. : comes directly off Abdominal Descending Aorta
Iliolumbar A.
Lateral Sacral A.
Both: Abdominal Descending Aorta –> Common Iliac A. –> Posterior Division of Internal Iliac A.
The arteries that produce the paraspinal As. supply ________, __________, and other supporting structures. These arteries feed directly into the ________ and _______ Spinal Arteries that come off the _________ Artery.
The arteries that produce the paraspinal As. supply Vertebrae, Spinal Cord, and other supporting structures. These arteries feed directly into the Anterior and Posterior Spinal Arteries that come off the Vertebral Artery.
