Abstract:
Objective To provide applied anatomy basis for upper fibular bone flap pedieled with cir- cumflex fibular neck artery.Methods The origin,course,branches,distribution and anastomosis of cir- cumflex fibular neck artery were observed on 54 sides of adult cadaver lower limb speeimens perfused with red latex.Results The circumflex fibular neck artery derived from popliteal artery (3.3?1.1)cm beneath the tip level of fibular head,with its length of (1.4?1.0) cm and diameter of (1.4?0.5) mm.The ascending periosteal branches of circumflex fibular neck artery anastomosed consistently with the descending periosteal branches of inferior lateral genicular artery.Conclusion The transplanting operative design of upper fibular bone flap pedicled with circumflex fibular neck artery was feasible.
