LOWER LIMB, BLOOD CIRCULATION

Arteries of the thigh and the knee. The superficial femoral artery becomes, the popliteal artery, at the level of the knee. The descending artery of the knee (or anastomotica magna artery) takes its origin at the superficial femoral artery, descending along the internal border of the thigh, then joins the arterial network of the knee. On the external border of the thigh is located the lateral circumflex artery, branch of the deep femoral artery. At the level of the knee, the popliteal artery divides into various collateral arteries, the articular arteries (or geniculate arteries) that form an anastomosed network. See. images 1009807 for the veins and 1007807 for the arteries and veins of the knee.
