Abstract:
The mode of branches of the deep femoral artery on 400 (298 males, 182 females)Chinese lower limbs were observed. According to the origin of the branches of the deepfemoral artery, it could be classified into six types. Among them, type I (63.5%) wasfound to be the prevailing pattern. There were no statistical differences present between the male and female, right andleft. The racial differences were not found between Chinese and Japanese, but it wassignificant between Chinese and European in type Ⅰ and Ⅱ. Most of the deep femoral arteries (type Ⅰ) were found to be originated from thefemoral artery at the place of 3.38 cm in male and 2.49 cm in female from the inguinalligment. The calibers of the beginning of the femoral and deep femoral arteries in 100 caseswere measured, the diameter of the femoral artery was 0.95 cm, and of the deep femoralwas 0.71 cm. The relationship of the ascending and descending branches of the lateral femoral circumflex artery with the nerve saphenous and nerve to the M. vastus medialis wereexamined. The level of the great saphenous vein ends into the femoral vein was found lowerthan the level of the origin of the deep femoral artery in our specimens, it was not thesame as text-book described.
