Objectives By the end of this lecture we should be able to - Differentiate between superficial and deep venous
system - Recognize the importance of the valves in the
circulatory system - Be familiar with the main superficial veins in the lower
limb and their clinical significance - Identify the major tributaries to the main veins of the
lowerlimb - Describe Anastomoses around: Hip, Knee and ankle
joints - Enumerate the most important branches, and
recognize the course of : Femoral, popliteal, Anterior tibial, and posterior tibial arteries
- Formation of the Dorsal and Plantar arches

Venous DrainageWe will
start with the venous system as it has less tributaries!!
![Page 4: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Venous drainage of the lower limb.
Significance of venous return from the lower limb-antigravity.
The are subdivided superficial and deep veins the superficial veins are between the two layers of superficial fascia while the deep veins accompany the arteries.
Both sets of veins are provided with valves more numerous in the deep than in the superficial set.
![Page 5: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The great saphenous vein (long saphenous vein) is the longest vein in the body. Begins in the medial marginal vein of the dorsum of the foot and ends in the femoral vein about 3 cm below the inguinal ligament. It passes in front of the medial malleolus and along the medial side of the leg in relation with the saphenous nerve behind the medial condyles of the tibia and femur and along the medial side of the thigh to end in the femoral vein.
Main Tributaries:-superficial circumflex iliac
-superficial external pudendal
![Page 6: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
-Small saphenous vein
( short saphenous vein)begins behind the lateral malleolus as a continuation of the lateral marginal vein,ascends and then crosses it to reach the middle of the back of the leg. It perforates the deep fascia at the popliteal fossa and ends in the popliteal vein
Tributaries-Branch from great saphenous vein-Lateral marginal vein- Numerous tributaries from the back of the leg.

The great and small saphenous veins and their tributaries
![Page 8: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Deep veinsThey accompany the arteries and their branches; they possess numerous valves.
The deep plantar venous arch lies alongside the plantar arterial arch drains into the medial and lateral plantar veins
The posterior tibial vein accompanies the posterior tibial artery and joined by the peroneal vein.
The anterior tibial vein is the upward continuation of the venæ comitantes of the dorsalis pedis artery. They leave the front of the leg by passing between the tibia and fibula, over the interosseous membrane, and unite with the posterior tibial vein to form the popliteal vein.
![Page 9: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Popliteal Vein ascends through the popliteal fossa to the opening in the Adductor magnus, where it becomes the femoral vein. It receives tributaries corresponding to the branches of the popliteal artery, and the small saphenous vein.
The femoral vein accompanies the femoral artery through the upper two-thirds of the thigh. It receives many muscular tributaries, and about 4 cm below the inguinal ligament is joined by the deep femoral vein and is joined by the great saphenous vein before it terminates. The deep femoral vein receives tributaries corresponding to the perforating branches of the profunda artery, and through these establishes communications with the popliteal vein below and the inferior gluteal vein above. It also receives the medial and lateral femoral circumflex veins.

Popliteal veinFormed by union of
venae comitantes of ant, post tibial arteries.
At the lower border of popliteus.
Continues as femoral vein at adductor opening.
TRIBUTARIES: 1- Veins accompany
arteries. 2- Small saphenous v.

Arterial supplyRight and left Common illiac
arteries arise as terminal branches of the abdominal Aorta at the level of L4
Each artery ends anterior to the Sacroilliac joint by dividing into External, and Internal Illiac Arteries
The bifurcations crossed by the ureter on either sides

Blood Supply of the anterior Compartment of the LegAnterior Tibial Artery The anterior tibial artery is
the smaller of the terminal branches of the popliteal artery.
It arises at the level of the lower border of the popliteus muscle and passes forward into the anterior compartment of the leg through an opening in the upper part of the interosseous membrane.
It descends on the anterior surface of the interosseous membrane, accompanied by the deep peroneal nerve.

Artery of the Posterior Fascial Compartment of the Leg
Posterior Tibial Artery
The posterior tibial artery is one of the terminal branches of the popliteal artery.
It begins at the level of the lower border of the popliteus muscle and passes downward deep to the gastrocnemius and soleus and the deep transverse fascia of the leg.
![Page 45: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Artery of the Posterior Fascial Compartment of the Leg
Posterior Tibial Artery
It lies on the posterior surface of the tibialis posterior muscle above and on the posterior surface of the tibia below.
The artery passes behind the medial malleolus deep to the flexor retinaculum and terminates by dividing into medial and lateral plantar arteries.
![Page 46: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Artery of the Posterior Fascial Compartment of the Leg
Branches
Peroneal artery: It is a large artery that arises close
to the origin of the posterior tibial artery.
The peroneal artery gives off muscular branches and a nutrient artery to the fibula and ends by taking part in the anastomosis around the ankle joint.
![Page 48: Arterial Supply of the Lower Limb Dr. Nivin ~Sharaf MD LMCC.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103006/56649e7c5503460f94b7e076/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Lateral Plantar ArteryThe lateral plantar artery is the larger of the terminal branches of the posterior tibial artery. On reaching the base of the fifth metatarsal bone, the artery curves medially to form the plantar arch and at the proximal end of the first intermetatarsal space joins the dorsalis pedis artery. During its course, it gives off muscular, cutaneous, and articular branches. The plantar arch gives off plantar digital arteries to the toes.
