Question

Locate the following blood vessels (in bold) in the fetal pigl

 

Arteries:

  1. aorta (arch)---dorsal to the pulmonary trunk

 

  1. anterior vena cava and posterior vena cava.

 

  1. brachiocephalic artery--- the first branch off the aorta

 

  1. The brachiocephalic artery branches into three other arteries: the right subclavian (passes under the clavicle), and the right and left carotid arteries

 

  1. The right subclavian continues and becomes the right axillary then right brachial artery.

 

  1. The left subclavian artery is dorsal to the brachiocephalic off of the aortic arch

 

  1. Follow the aorta dorsally where it becomes the dorsal or descending aorta , then the abdominal aorta

 

  1. The renal artery that connects the kidney to the medial abdominal aorta

 

  1. At about the level of the renal artery, you may see the very tiny (diameter) gonadal arteries.

 

  1. The abdominal aorta terminates in four branches: the right and left external iliac, and the right and left internal iliac arteries.

 

  1. The external iliac arteries continue (and branch, but we will not be naming all of the branches) into the leg. Once the external iliac enters into the hind limb, it is called the femoral artery
