Operative approach to the calcaneus: A comparison of classical and modified techniques with regard to arterial vascularization

Skin and soft tissue necrosis of the heel are the main problems following operative treatment of calcaneal fractures with the classical medial (McReynolds, 1982), lateral (Palmer, 1948), enlarged lateral, and the bilateral approaches. In order to show how classical approaches harm the vessels supplying the adjacent soft tissues, we studied the vascularization to both the calcaneus and its surrounding soft tissues. Our findings show that the calcaneus is well supplied by a collateral circulation derived from the posterior tibial, peroneal, lateral tarsal, the medial and lateral plantar arteries. The soft tissue supply is less rich. On the medial side, the soft tissue supply comes from the posterior tibial and lateral plantar arteries. On the lateral side, it is supplied by a thin anastomotic arch that runs between the lateral tarsal and peroneal arteries. Based on our anatomical findings we have proposed two modified approaches which minimize damage to the vessels of the adjacent soft tissues and still allow exact reposition of the fractures. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

A case of bilateral anomalous origin for dorsalis pedis arteries (anomalous dorsalis pedis arteries)

Summary A case of bilateral anomalous arterial supply of the lower limb is presented. In this case, both anterior tibial arteries were hypoplastic. These arteries came to the anterior (extensor) compartment by passing superiorly through the interosseous membrane. They ran between the tibialis anterior and the extensor hallucis longus muscles and terminated after giving numerous muscular and fascial branches. The dorsalis pedis arteries originated from the peroneal arteries. The peroneal arteries reached the anterior compartment by piercing the interosseous membrane at its lower part and ran as the dorsalis pedis arteries. Awareness of the anatomical variations in anatomy of the distal popliteal artery is important for angiographers, vascular surgeons and reconstructive surgeons who operate upon these regions.

Un cas d'origine anormale bilatérale des artères dorsales du pied

Résumé Un cas de vascularisation artérielle anormale bilatérale du membre inférieur est présenté. Dans ce cas les deux aa. tibiales antérieures étaient hypoplasiques. Elles gagnaient la loge antérieure de la jambe en traversant la partie haute de la membrane interosseuse. Elles passaient entre les mm. tibial antérieur et long extenseur de l'hallux et se terminait en donnant de nombreuses branches musculaires et fasciales. Les aa. dorsales du pied naissaient des aa. fibulaires. Les aa. fibulaires gagnaient la loge antérieure de la jambe en traversant la partie basse de la membrane interosseuse et avaient ensuite le trajet normal des aa. dorsales du pied. La connaissance des variations anatomiques de la partie distale de l'a. poplitée est importante pour les radiologues pratiquant l'angiographie, les chirurgiens vasculaires et les chirurgiens reconstructifs opérant dans ces régions.

The arterial supply of the temporalis muscle

Owing to the diverse applications of the temporalis muscle in reconstructive surgery, the study of its arterial supply is becoming an issue of great importance nowadays. The material of the present study consisted of 44 specimens, four obtained from two stillbirths and 40 dissected from 20 embalmed cadavers after injecting the external carotid artery with lead oxide solution. Direct branches from the second part of the maxillary artery and the middle temporal artery proved to be constantly furnishing the muscle from its superficial and deep surfaces. The muscular branch of the middle temporal artery supplied the middle and posterior thirds of the superficial surface and the posterior third of the medial surface of the muscle. The superficial temporal artery participated in supplying the muscle from its lateral surface, while the anterior and posterior deep temporal arteries lay deep to the anterior and the middle thirds of the muscle, respectively. The temporal branches of the middle meningeal artery anastomosed with the deep temporal arteries, thereby contributing to the supply of the temporalis muscle. An arterial pedicle arising from the third part of the maxillary artery constituted an additional supply in 9.1% of the specimens, providing an additional arterial pedicle for temporalis-muscle-flap elevation.     

Structure and vascularization of the cruciate ligaments of the human knee joint

The structure and vascularization of the human anterior and posterior cruciate ligament were investigated by light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, injection techniques and by immunohistochemistry. The major part of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament is composed of bundles of type I collagen. Type III collagen-positive fibrils separate the bundles. The major cell type is the elongated fibroblast, lying solitarily between the parallel collagen fibrils. The histologic structure of the cruciate ligaments is not homogeneous. In both ligaments there is a zone where the tissue resembles fibrocartilage. In the anterior cruciate ligament the fibrocartilaginous zone is located 5–10 mm proximal of the tibial ligament insertion in the anterior portion of the ligament. In the posterior cruciate ligament the fibrocartilage is located in the central part of the middle third. Within those zones the cells are arranged in columns and the cell shape is round to ovoid. Transmission electron microscopy reveals typical features of chondrocytes. The chondrocytes are surrounded by a felt-like pericellular matrix, a high content of cellular organelles and short processes on the cell surface. The pericellular collagen is positive for type II collagen. The major blood supply of the cruciate ligaments arises from the middle geniculate artery. The distal part of both cruciate ligaments is vascularized by branches of the lateral and medial inferior geniculate artery. Both ligaments are surrounded by a synovial fold where the terminal branches of the middle and inferior arteries form a periligamentous network. From the synovial sheath blood vessels penetrate the ligament in a horizontal direction and anastomose with a longitudinally orientated intraligamentous vascular network. The density of blood vessels within the ligaments is not homogeneous. In the anterior cruciate ligament an avascular zone is located within the fibrocartilage of the anterior part where the ligament faces the anterior rim of the intercondylar fossa. The fibrocartilaginous zone of the middle third of the posterior cruciate ligament is also avascular. According to Pauwel’s theory of the ”causal histogenesis” (1960) the stimulus for the development of fibrocartilage within dense connective tissue is shearing and compressive stress. In the anterior cruciate ligament this biomechanical situation may occur when the ligament impinges on the anterior rim of the intercondylar fossa when the knee is fully extended. Compressive and shearing stress in the center of the middle third of the posterior cruciate ligament may result from twisting of the fiber bundles. Accepted: 12 March 1999

Anatomic basis of a pedicled extensor digitorum brevis muscle flap

The vascularization of the extensor digitorum brevis is ensured on its deep aspect by branches of the anterior tibial artery, but also by a lateral arterial arch anastomosing with these branches. The lateral vascular arch of the extensor digitorum brevis was constantly found in 37 anatomic specimens: 17 formolized and 20 fresh. This arch derives from the perforating peroneal branch, the terminal anterior branch of the peroneal artery. Its variable caliber, assessed by arteriography of the foot, seemed adequate for the peroneal artery to serve as a pedicle for the extensor digitorum brevis without interruption of the anterior-tibial axis.     

A study of the arterial blood supply to the penis

Summary Two arterial systems contribute to the blood supply of the penis. The deeper system, responsible for supplying the erectile tissues, arises from the internal pudendal arteries (a. pudendae internae), or sometimes from an accessory internal artery. Four branches, either collateral or terminal, should be considered: the artery to the bulb of the penis, the urethral artery, the deep artery of the penis and the dorsal artery of the penis. Variations are frequently present in the origin, distribution and symmetry of these arteries, but on the whole the blood supply is organised into three planes, inferior or ventral, middle and deep, superior or dorsal. These three planes are complementary: when the blood supply to any one of them is occluded, at whatever level this may be, the blood supply is supplemented by the plane immediately above it. Arteriograms should be interpreted with caution because anatomical variations may at first sight be taken for pathological change.The superficial system, supplying the tissues around the erectile organs, arises from the lateral inferior pudendal arteries. Three types of supply have been described, according to whether the right and left arteries have a symmetrical distribution or whether the arterial network arises in large part or totally from one side.

Contribution à l'étude de la vascularisation artérielle du pénis

Résumé Deux systèmes artériels participent à la vascularisation du pénis. Le système profond, tenant sous sa dépendance les organes érectiles, a pour origine les artères honteuses internes (a. pudendae internae), parfois une artère interne accessoire. Quatre branches, collatérales ou terminales sont à considérer: l'artère du bulbe du pénis, l'artère urètrale, l'artère profonde du pénis, l'artère dorsale. Il existe de fréquentes variations dans l'origine, la distribution et la symétrie de ces artères mais, dans son ensemble, la vascularisation est organisée selon trois plans, inférieur ou ventral, moyen ou profond, supérieur ou dorsal. Ces trois plans sont complémentaires: lorsque l'un d'eux s'épuise, à quelque niveau que ce soit, le relais est pris par le plan immédiatement supérieur.Le système superficiel, vascularisant les enveloppes provient des artères honteuses externes inférieures. Trois types de vascularisation sont décrits, selon que les deux artères droite et gauche ont une distribution symétrique ou que le réseau artériel provient en majeure partie ou totalement d'un seul côté.

     

Variations in collateral contributions to the blood supply to the sternum

The blood supply of the sternum plays a major role in healing of the sternum after sternotomy. The sternal blood supply is derived mainly from the medial horizontal branches of the internal thoracic artery (ITA). The ITA is usually described as giving off sternal, anterior intercostal and perforating branches supplying their respective areas. The aim of the present study was to describe variations in the arterial branching pattern of collateral contributions to the sternum. The study was conducted on 30 fresh specimens of anterior thoracic wall in which cellulose acetate butyrate was injected into the ITA. The branches of the ITA in the first to sixth intercostal spaces were dissected and any additional artery supplying the sternum in each intercostal space was observed. In the present study, the ITA gave off non-collateral branches - sternal, anterior intercostal and perforating. The ITA was also found to have branches which divided into two to supply two destinations which could establish collateral flow to the sternum: (1). A sterno-intercostal branch (1-12 mm in length) divided and diverged in a Y or T shape. The medial limb supplied the sternum and the lateral limb supplied the adjoining thoracic wall, anastomosing with the terminal part of the posterior intercostal artery. (2). A sterno-perforating branch supplied the sternum either anteriorly or posteriorly before perforating and supplying the pectoral region and anastomosing with the thoracoacromial artery. This study reinforces the practice of ligating branches of the ITA close to its trunk as they have the potential to develop collateral blood supply. In the present study the posterior intercostal artery was at times found to supply the sternum directly or via its collateral branch and was named the persistent posterior intercostal artery.     

Arterial supply to the human anterior cruciate ligament

The arterial supply to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) was prepared for study by injecting a fresh cadaver knee with an epoxy lead-oxide solution and subsequently immersing it in 10% formalin for a 2-week period. The vasculature of the ACL was exposed through dissection for examination. A second specimen was prepared similarly and was evaluated by a CAT scan. ACL vascularization arises from the middle genicular artery and vessels of the infrapatella fat pad and adjacent synovium. The artery gives rise to periligamentous vessels which form a web-like network within the synovial membrane. These periligamentous vessels give rise to penetrating branches which transversely cross the ACL and anastomose with a network of longitudinally oriented endoligamentous vessels. Terminal branches of the inferior medial and lateral genicular arteries supply the distal portion of the ACL directly. The extremities of the ACL seem to be better vascularized than the middle part, and the proximal portion seems to have a greater vascular density than the distal portion. The arteries at the ligamentous-osseous junctions of the ACL do not significantly contribute to the ligament's vascularity. Ramifications concerning the ACL's blood supply as it relates to athletic training is also discussed.

Blood supply of the human fetal mandible

Gross anatomic and radiologic studies of the blood supply to the human mandible of the full-term fetus and newborn infant were performed on 22 specimens ranging from 320–538 mm crown-heel length and 1,192–4,108 gm in weight. Ten specimens were injected with red-lead and liquid soap to demonstrate the arteries radiographically. Twelve other specimens were injected with Castolite with a sprinkling of red-lead and yellow dye. The best side of each specimen was studied by radiography and dissection. This study demonstrated: (1) a masseteric arterial plexus supplying the coronoid process and the lateral wall of the ramus with contributions from the facial, masseter, transverse facial and external carotid arteries or combinations thereof; (2) a mental arterial plexus anastomosing with the mental, submental and inferior labial arteries; (3) an inferior alveolar artery supplying most of the body of the mandible with a majority of its branches passing in an upward direction; and (4) periosteal vessels supplying the lower border of the mandible and receiving their blood supply from the blood vessels supplying the muscles attaching to these areas and the periosteum. Supplemental to the above findings were anastomoses between the submental, mylohyoid and sublingual arteries along the medial border of the mandible. Also a significant variation not previously recorded was noted in one specimen in which the sublingual artery originated from the facial artery rather than the lingual.
