Variant origin of pronater teres from struthers ligament with higher bifurcation of brachial artery.

Abstract

During routine dissection of the upper limb of an adult male cadaver we noticed the Struthers ligament with variant higher origin of Pronater teres from it. We have also noticed the higher bifurcation of Brachial Artery as superficial and deep brachial arteries. Knowledge of these kinds of vascular variations is important during vascular and reconstructive surgeries and also in evaluation of angiographic images.
