Anatomical and morphometric features of the profunda brachii artery.

When the literature is examined, studies evaluating the profunda brachii artery (PBA) are limited as most studies only investigate the artery's origin. In 44 upper extremities belonging to 24 human anatomical specimens, single and double PBAs were observed in 39 and five cases, respectively. In cases with a single PBA, the origin was the brachial artery (BA) in 35 cases and the posterior circumflex humeral artery in four cases.

Morphometric and anatomic characteristics of pronator quadratus muscle.

Purpose: In surgical procedures commonly employed for the management of scaphoid and distal radial fractures, the incision and dissection of the pronator quadratus muscle play a pivotal role. Nevertheless, comprehensive investigations into the anatomical intricacies of the pronator quadratus muscle have been relatively scarce within the clinical community. In light of this, our study endeavors to make a substantive contribution to the medical literature by conducting a meticulous examination of the morphology and morphometry of this muscle.
