The Axillary Artery Begins at the lateral border of the 1st rib as continuation of the subclavian artery. Subclavian artery
Continues as brachial artery at lower
border of teres major muscle. Is closely related to the cords of brachial plexus and their branches Is enclosed within the axillary sheath. Is crossed anteriorly by the pectoralis minor muscle, and is divided into three parts; 1st, 2nd & 3rd.
Brachial artery Axillary artery
The 1st part of the axillary artery Extends from the lateral border of 1st rib to upper 1st part border of the pectoralis 2nd part
minor muscle. Highest thoracic Related: 3rd part artery a.
Pectoralis • Anterioly: to the minor pectoralis major muscle • Laterally: to the cords Teres major of the brachial plexus. ONE branch: Highest thoracic artery The 2nd part of the axillary artery Lies behind the pectoralis minor muscle. 1st part 2nd part It is related medially, laterally, and posterioly to the corresponding cord of 3rd part Thoraco- acromial a. the brachial plexus. Pec. minor
TWO branches: Lateral • Thoracoacromial a. Teres Thoracic a. major • Lateral thoracic. The 3rd part of the axillary artery • Extends from the lower border of pectoralis minor muscle to 1st part the lower border teres major 2nd part muscle. • Related medially, laterally, and posterioly, to the branches of 3rd part the cords of the brachial plexus Pec. minor • Gives THREE Branches: • Subscabular, Teres • Anterior circumflex humeral major • Posterior circumflex humeral.

CIRCUMFLEX • Pain POST..CIRCUM FLE X The axillary vein: Begins at the lower border of the Teres major, as the continuation of the basilic vein. Ends at the outer border of the first rib as the subclavian vein. Receives the brachial veins and, close to its termination, the cephalic vein. The subclavian vein: Is the continuation of the axillary vein. Extends from the outer border of the first rib to the sternal end of the clavicle, where it unites with the internal jugular to form the brachiocephalic (innominate) vein.
