Ocean of Brachial Artery

The word ¿Brachial¿ is derived from the Greek word ¿Brachion¿ meaning shorter; brachium also means arm. Detailed study of branching pattern and variations of brachial artery will help in a greater understanding of the subject and thereby preventing and avoiding possible complications and achieve best results after operations as well as for therapeutic and diagnostic interventions. The present study is undertaken to note the origin, course, branching pattern and variations of the brachial artery and related measurements in human cadavers.
