Abstract:The axillary artery is the continuation of the subclavian artery. Occasionally, some of the subclavian artery’s distal branches may atypically originate from the axillary artery, such as the suprascapular artery. The suprascapular artery’s distal (low) origin from the axillary artery, instead of the subclavian artery, may also be characterized as an aberrant suprascapular artery. The current cadaveric report describes the coexistence of an aberrant suprascapular artery (of axillary origin), variant course, and… Show more
