    Abstract

    Background: Understanding both the typical and atypical arterial anatomy of the upper extremity holds vital clinical significance for vascular radiologists and surgeons. This knowledge ensures accurate diagnostic interpretation and facilitates the safe conduct of interventional and surgical procedures on the upper extremities. Awareness of anomalous branching patterns of the brachial artery is particularly crucial during percutaneous arterial catheterization to prevent complications from inadvertent vessel damage. Moreover, knowledge of variations is essential for plastic surgeons employing flaps in reconstructive surgeries.
