“…Characteristics of each submitted study are shown in Table 1. Out of 18 studies, 16 contained data considering variations of the origin of the DBA, regarding a total of 1200 arteries (Anson, 1966;Astik & Dave, 2012;Chakravarthi, 2014;Charles et al, 1931;Chauhan et al, 2013;Dipali et al, 2020;Hattori et al, 2013;May et al, 2020;Ojha et al, 2015;Patnaik et al, 2002;Piquilloud et al, 2011;Sawant, 2015;Shrish et al, 2014;Sonje et al, 2014;Surekha et al, 2016;van de Pol et al, 2016) and three studies contained data considering the diameter of the DBA, regarding a total of 161 arteries (Masquelet & Rinaldi, 1985;Sun et al, 2016;van de Pol et al, 2016).…”

The deep brachial artery (DBA) is the first and largest branch of the brachial artery. Multiple variations of the DBA's origin, termination, and diameter have been reported in the literature. Major online medical databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were searched in order to find all studies considering origin variations and the diameter of the DBA. The prevalence of the DBA originating directly from the axillary or brachial artery was shown to be 92.87%. DBA originating indirectly from the axillary or brachial artery, as a common trunk with other arteries, was found to be 7.13%. The mean diameter of the DBA was shown to be 2.05 mm. The authors of the present study believe that this is the most accurate and up-to-date meta-analysis considering origin patterns and the diameter of the DBA. Additionally, this study contains a comprehensive literature review in which current detailed anatomical knowledge concerning the DBA was gathered. The results of this study could provide a helpful tool for physicians, especially surgeons, dealing with an upper limb in their daily practice.
