Q

Hunters canal

A

Is an aponeurotic tunnel in the middle third of the thigh, extending from the apex of the femoral triangle to the opening in the adductor magnus, the adductor hiatus
- distal part of the thigh

Q

What occasionally happens to the femoral artery?

A

It divides into 2 trunks (duplication) reuniting distally in the adductor canal
- AKA the Hunter’s canal

Q

Where does the DFA bifurcate to?

A

Laterally

- deeply

17
Q

What does the DFA supply?

A

Thigh muscles with many branches

18
Q

What does the DFA connect?

A

EIA and the popliteal artery

19
Q

What happens at the Hunters canal?

A

The Femoral Artery becomes the popliteal artery passing obliquely behind the knee in the popliteal fossa

20
Q

Where does the popliteal artery trifurcate?

A

Below the popliteal fossa

- becomes the tibioperoneal trunk

21
Q

What does the tibioperoneal trunk trifurcate into? (3)

A
  1. Peroneal artery
  2. posterior tibial artery
  3. Anterior tibial artery
22
Q

What does the anterior tibial artery become?

A

The dorsalis pedis artery at the ankle level which supplies the foot

23
Q

Where does the posterior tibial artery terminate?

A

At heel level

24
Q

What does the posterior tibial artery become?

A

The plantar arteries in the foot

25
Q

What does the peroneal artery supply? (2)

A
  1. The lateral lower leg

2. Heel

26
Q

What kind of veins are in the leg? (3)

A
  1. Deep
  2. Superficial
  3. Perforating
27
Q

What do deep veins accompany?

A

The arteries and share their names

28
Q

What do the veins of the foot form?

A

The plantar arches

29
Q

What does the planter arches give rise to?

A

Calf veins

30
Q

What are the calf veins? (3)

A
  1. Anterior tibial
  2. Posterior tibial
  3. Peroneal veins
31
Q

How many veins in total are there in the calf?

A

6

- the 3 types of calf veins are paried

32
Q

What are the calf veins accompanied by?

A

3 singular arteries of the same name

- 2 veins for 1 artery

33
Q

Where do perforated veins travel from?

A

The superficial vessels to the deep ones
