Anatomy Ch.6C The Blood Vessels
abdominal aorta
celiac artery, organs of upper digestive tract; phrenic artery, diaphragm; suprarenal artery, adrenal gland; renal artery, kidney; gonadal artery, ovary or testis; inferior mesenteric artery, lower portions of large intestine; lumbar artery, posterior abdominal; middle sacral artery, sacrum and coccyx; common iliac artery, lower abdominal wall, pelvic organs and lower limb
popliteal artery
blood in the femoral artery will flow into what artery next
femoral vein
blood in the great saphenous will enter into what vessel next
arch of aorta
brachiocephalic artery; right upper limb, right side of head
internal iliac artery
branch off the common iliac artery that runs deep into the pelvis
popliteal artery
branches to form the anterior and posterior tibial artery
descending aorta; thoracic aorta
bronchial artery, pericardial artery, esophageal artery, mediastinal artery, posterior intercostal artery, bronchi, pericardium, esophagus, mediastinum, thoracic wall
cerebral arterial circle
circle of willis
fibular artery
comes off posterior titular artery
common iliac artery
emerges from the descending aorta (abdominal aorta). branches to form the external iliac artery and the internal iliac artery
great saphenous vein
extends from the foot region and runs along the medial side of the leg and merges with the femoral vein just slightly inferior to the junction of the femoral vein and external iliac vein
cerebral arterial circle
formed by anterior and posterior cerebral arteries, which join the internal carotid arteries
femoral vein
forms the external iliac vein
external iliac artery
forms the femoral artery
popliteal vein
forms the femoral vein
arch of aorta
left common carotid artery; left subclavian artery; left upper limb
popliteal v., femoral v., external iliac v., common iliac v., inferior vena cava
list the blood vessels in sequence as blood flows from the popliteal vein to the right atrium
ascending aorta
right and left coronary arteries; heart
femoral artery
runs the length of the femur and forms the popliteal artery in the popliteal region
fibular vein
the _____ joins the posterior tibial vein
lesser trochanter
the circumflex femoral artery is located nearest what structure of the femur
medial
the femoral artery is _____ to the femur
posterior tibular
the fibular artery branches off the ________ artery
medial
the great saphenous is _____ to the femoral vein
medial
the great saphenous vein is ____ to the femoral vein
posterior tibial
the lateral plantar artery branches off the _______ artery
common iliac vein
the right and left common iliac veins join to form the interior vena cava that leads to the right atrium of the heart
anterior and posterior tibial arteries
the sequence of blood flow through the femoral artery: femoral artery to the popliteal artery to the __________ .
tibia and fibula
there is a hole in the _______ that allows the anterior tibial artery to arrive at the anterior side of the leg
wrap around condyles of the femur and branches in popliteal artery
where are the genicular arteries located
anterior / posterior tibial
___________ vein will merge at the location of the popliteal vein
anterior / posterior tibial artery
________ is on the anterior aspect of the tibia. the _________ is on the posterior portion of the tibia and has a branch that forms the fibular artery
