A. Circumflexa humeri anterior [anterior circumflex humeral a.] - Artery that arises beneath the latissimus dorsi, at the same level as or deeper than the posterior circumflex humeral artery. It passes in front of the surgical neck of humerus to the coracobra- chialis and biceps brachii and anastomoses with the posterior circumflex humeral art.

ID 20
A. Interossea communis [Common interosseous a.] - Trunk formed by the following vessels given off by the ulnar artery or branch arising from the division of the brachial artery (embryological) at the superior border of the pronator teres.
ID 14

ID
A. Interossea communis [Common interosseous a.] - Trunk formed by the following vessels given off by the ulnar artery or branch arising from the division of the brachial artery (embryological) at the superior border of the pronator teres.
ID 21
A. Interossea anterior [anterior interosseous a.] - It runs on the interosseous membrane and beneath the pro- nator quadratus to the carpal and palmar dor- sal arches. It supplies the deep flexors.

ID 23
A. Interossea posterior [posterior interosseous a.] - Artery passing dorsally between the interosseous membrane of forearm and the oblique cord that supplies the extensor muscles of the forearm, extending as far as the carpal dorsal arch.
ID 22
A. Comitans nervi mediani [Comitans a. for the median n.] - It accompanies the median nerve, which supplies the forearm muscles.
