Q

Which of the following is not a branch of the femoral artery?
a. deep circumflex iliac
b. superficial epigastric
c. superficial iliac circumflex
d. superficial/deep external pudendal
e. deep femoral

A

a. deep circumflex–comes from the external iliac artery

femoral artery ends as the popliteal artery
external iliac branches before going under inguinal ligament are: inferior epigastric and deep circumflex iliac artery

Branches arising from the common femoral artery include
- superficial epigastric artery,
- superficial circumflex artery, and
- external pudendal artery.
Distal to these smaller branches, the common femoral artery bifurcates into the
- deep femoral (or profunda femoris) and
- superficial femoral artery.
