Taxonomic definition

An artery of upper limb is a systemic artery

[arteria systemica

] which irrigates the upper limb [membrum superius

Notes

Variations of the main upper limb arterial trunks occur in about 20% of cases. They comprise trunks with superficial course, high origins, variant vessels or combinations, including: Arteria brachialis accessoria, Arteria brachioradialis superficialis, Arteria brachioulnoradialis superficialis,and Aarteria brachiomediana superficialis (Kachlik et al. 2017 Surg Radiol Anat 39:405-417).
