The lateral thoracic artery revisited
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2013Although the variations in the origin of the branches of the axillary and subclavian arteries have been well documented, little information regarding the highly variable lateral thoracic artery (LTA) is available. Descriptions of the LTA variations may prove useful during procedures of the lateral aspects of the thorax such as reconstructive plastic ...

Morphometry of the internal thoracic arteries
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 1998The surgical significance of the internal thoracic arteries (ITA's) in procedures such as coronary artery bypass grafting, transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flaps and minimal incision direct coronary artery bypass surgery is well recognised. However, the detailed morphometry of these vessels is not well documented. This study aimed to detail the

The right internal thoracic artery
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2011The left internal thoracic artery is acknowledged as the best coronary conduit. The right internal thoracic artery (RITA) is identical to the left ITA (LITA), yet, despite excellent published results, the RITA [as part of bilateral ITA (BITA) grafting] is rarely used in coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). With advances in CABG and drug-eluting

Arterial thoracic outlet syndrome
Hand Clinics, 2004Arterial vascular complications resulting from thoracic outlet compression, although rare, can be substantial and potentially limb threatening. Bony abnormalities such as cervical ribs can lead to chronic trauma to the subclavian artery. Early on, the clinical symptoms can be subtle and confusing, causing potential delay in diagnosis.
