An Abnormal Origin and Branching Pattern of the Right Subscapular Artery: A Case Report School of Basic Medical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin, Terengganu, Malaysia.
The use of upper limb vascular channels for diagnostic and interventional procedures makes it important for us to report any abnormalities in their course and branching patterns. During routine dissection of an embalmed male cadaver, an unusual origin and branching pattern of the right subscapular a...
