Abstract:
The sectional morphology of the human brachial artery, ulnar artery, radial artery, palmar digital artery of the thumb and the middle finger were observed under microscopy. Excepting the brachial artery, the intima of the other 4 arteries are thick, especially the ulnar artery. The histological variations must be noticed during the artery is anastomosed. The percentage of the adventitia of the whole wall thickness decreases and the elastic fibers become looser gradually in accordance with the size of the arteries. The relative contents of elastin, collagen and smooth muscle of the above 5 arteries were measured by microspectrophotometer. The content of elastin of these arteries decreases(P
