The Axillary artery is the continuation of the subclavian artery and is a major artery of the upper limb. During the routine dissection for undergraduate Ayurvedic medical students of SDM Trust's Ayurvedic Medical College, Terdal, Bagalkot, Karnataka, India, in the department of anatomy we come across a variation in branching pattern of third part of left axillary artery in male cadaver approximately 55 years of age. The first part and the second part of left axillary artery branches were found to be normal but third part of left axillary artery presenting only one common trunk. This common trunk running posteriorly and dividing into subscapular artery, Anterior circumflex Humeral Artery, Posterior circumflex Humeral Artery and profunda brachii artery.
Biceps brachii is a flexor of elbow joint and also a powerful supinator of the forearm present in the anterior compartment of arm and usually it originates from two head as its name indicating one is long head of biceps originating from supraglenoid tubercle of scapula and another one is short head which is originating from coracoids process of scapula. During routine dissection for Ayurvedic undergraduates, In the department of Shareera Rachana (Anatomy) in SDM Trust’s Ayurvedic Medical College, Terdal, Tq. Jamakhandi, Dist. Bagalkot, we found that third head of biceps brachii was originating from medial side of shaft of humerus which is just below the insertion of coracobrachialis along with the intramuscular septa and inserting into the radial tuberosity along with long and short head of biceps. Such variations are important for clinicians and surgeons for diagnostic and surgical procedures of the upper limb.
The Axillary artery is the continuation of the subclavian artery and is a major artery of the upper limb. During the routine dissection for Undergraduate Ayurvedic Medical Students of Sharada Ayurvedic Medical College, Yadgir, Karnataka, India, in the Department of Anatomy, we come across a variation in branching pattern of second and third part of right axillary artery in male cadaver approximately 55 years of age. The first part of axillary artery was found to be normal. In the second part of axillary artery we observed two branches, first one is thoracoacromial artery arose as usual second branch given common trunk which is further divided into lateral thoracic artery and subscapular artery. Even third part of axillary artery gave one common trunk that terminated by bifurcating into Anterior Circumflex Humeral Artery and Posterior Circumflex Humeral Artery.
