Abstract:: The pattern of the superficial arteries in the palma manus can be characterized in the following manner. In 58% of the cases the arteria ulnaris runs in an arch from the ulna to the radius and gives off a varying number of arteries to the fingers. There is no connection with any other artery. In 42% of the cases there are arterial connections, of which 32.1% are present in the form of an 'arcus' of a rather large diameter, formed through connection of the arteria ulnaris with the ramus palmaris superficialis of the arteria radialis or with the arteria metacarpalis dorsalis I. Likewise, in 9.9%, there is a connection between the arteries but this, which we call an 'anastomosis', is of a more delicate nature.
