C
Inferior ulnar collateral
D
Radial collateral
High-Yield Explanation
Ans. is 'd' i.e., Radial collateralo Radial collateral is a branch ofprofimda branchii aery, which in turn is a branch of brachial aery (Radial collateral aery is not a direct branch of brachial aery).Brachial aery o It begins as a continuation of axillary aery at level of lower border of teres major muscles. It terminates in the cubital fossa, opposite the level of neck of radius by dividing into radial and ulnar aeries. It gives following branches?1. Profunda brachii :- Accompanies radial nerve in the spiral groove and gives following branches?Deltoid branch (ascending branch) :- It anastomoses with the descending branch of posterior circumflex humeral aery.Nutrient aery to humerus:Muscular branchesPosterior descending (middle collateral) :- It anastomoses with interosseous recurrent branch of ulnar aery.Anterior descending (radial collateral) :It anastomoses with radial recurrent branch of radial aery in front of lateral epicondyle.2. Superior ulnar collateral aery :-Anastomoses with posterior ulnar recurrent branch of ulnar aery behind medial epicondyle.3. Muscular branches4. Inferior ulnar collateral (Supratrochlear aery) :- Anastomoses with anterior ulnar recurrent branch of ulnar aery in front of medial epicondyle.
