Vasculature Flashcards
Anterior branches of the vertebral arteries supply the joints of Luschka
Harris et al., (1956)
Lateral branches of the vertebral arteries supply the deep neck musculature and facet joints
Ozgen et al., (2004)
Anterior meningeal branch arises from the vertebral artery above C3 transverse foramen and supplies the body and odontoid process of C2 as well as articulate plate of ao and aa joints
Campero et al., (2011)
Thoracic blood supply is through the posterior intercostal arteries
Moore et al., (2014)
In the T region a spinal branch enters the vertebral canal via the intervertebral foramen and gives off anterior and posterior spinal canal branches
Devlin et al., (2011)
Anastamoses between adjacent vertebrae in the lumbar region formed from ascending and descending branches of the spinal branch, from the V artery of that level and the one above
Ratcliffe, (1980)

Bogduk, (2005)
Lordotic secondary curvatures of the L and C spine could be linked to the increased blood supply in these areas
Bulut et al., (2016)
Axial loading in lumbar spine theorised to contribute to increased blood supply in this area as axially loaded mice demonstrate increased vascularity
Papuga et al., (2010)
Anterolateral veins of the extrinsic venous system are msot continuous and can replace the median vein should it be interrupted
Thron, (2016)
Median veins drain to radiculomedullary veins which accompany the spinal nerve roots and drain to the extradural venous systems
Santillan et al., (2012)
Post division of internal venous plexus sits anterior to ligamentum flavum and connects to external venous plexus
Griessenauer et al., (2004)
Basivertebral venous plexus formed within the VBs and runs horizontally through them, drain out the back to the anterior internal venous plexus (majority)
Moore et al., (2014)
