ABSTRACT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Background: <\/strong>The pattern of popliteal artery branching and its variations still subject for discussions due to several procedures performed in the popliteal fossa by vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists daily. The aim of this survey is to describe and quantify these variations comparing the results to the data found in the literature.<\/p>\n

Material and Methods: <\/strong>Twenty one anatomical specimens of the Department of Morphology from Fluminense Federal University, preserved in 10% formalin aqueous solution, were used in this study.<\/p>\n

Results: <\/strong>From those specimens, 17 (80.95%) had the most common pattern which is\u00a0anterior tibial artery (AT) arising first followed by bifurcation of tibial\u2013peroneal trunk in the posterior tibial artery (PT) and peroneal artery (PR); 3 (14.28%) had the trifurcation pattern; and 1 (4.77%) had the PT as first branch and anterior tibial-peroneal trunk leading to AT and PR arteries posteriorly.<\/p>\n

Conclusions: <\/strong>The results showed low frequency of the common pattern when compared to the literature and revealed the relevance of the trifurcation pattern. The relative position of the frequency of this pattern matches the results of other studies.<\/p>\n

Key words: <\/strong>Anterior Tibial Artery, Tibiofibular Trunk, Trifurcation.<\/p>\n
