Arterial Development:
- Components:
- inferolateral branch of arteria comitans nervi ischiadici
inf gluteal )
-
medial femoral circumflex
-
lateral femoral circumflex
-
1st perforating branch of profunda
- Discussion:
- persisting distal portions of
ischiadic artery become peroneal
& medial inferior genicular
arteries;
- proximal portion persists as the arteria comitans nervi ischiadici,
branch of
inferior gluteal artery, which lies on surface of
Sciatic Nerve & sends branch lateral & downward to anastomose
w/ lateral
and
medial
femoral circumflex arteries &
first perforating branch of (see
femoral artery);
