4. 6.Ulnar artery: arise at distal end of coraco-
brachialis and pass downward and back
along ventral edge of medial head.It give
branches to these muscles posterior super-
ficial pectoral,lymph gland and skin.
7.Nutrient artery of humerus: arise from ulnar
and enter nutrient foramen of humerus.
8.Anterior radial artery: pass downward and
little outward on anterior face of humerus
under cover of biceeps in front of elbow
joint.It supply biceeps,extensor of carpus.

5. It is direct continuation of brachial.It is
accompanied by median nerve lies in front
of artery at its origin.
Articular branch: supply to elbow joint.
Muscular branch: go to flexor of carpus and
digit,the largest of these arise at proximal 3rd
of forearm.
Common interosseous artery: arise at level
of interosseous space through which it pass
outward.It supply to nutrient artery of radius
and ulna.

6. Artery of rete carpi volare: arise at distal
3rd of forearm and desend on radius to
posterior surface of carpus.
Lateral volar metacarpal artery: arise just
above carpus
Medial volar metacarpal artery: is given
off median at acute angle,pass down
medial side of carpus behind tendom of
flexor.It supply nutrient artery to large
metacarpal bone.

7. Artery of 1stphalanx:It rises at right angle about middle of
1st phalanx
1)dorsal branch. 2)volar branch
Artery of digital cushion:arise at proximal boarder of
cartilage of 3rd phalanx and pass down to ramify in digital
cushion.
Dorsal artery of 2nd phalanx:arise little above distal
sesamoid bone and pass forward under cover of cartilage
of third phalanx and give branch to skin,coffin,joint and
coronary corium of hoof.
Volar artery of 2nd phalanx:It pass above proximal boarder
of distal sesamoid bone and unite with opposite artery.
Dorsal artery of 3rd phalanx:arise at deep face of angle of
3rd phalanx passing through notch and run forward in
groove on dorsal surface give off branches which ramify in
corium of wall of hoof.
