    Journal: Folia Morphol (Warsz); 2000; 58(4):247-54. PubMed ID: 11000880.
    Abstract:
    The anatomical method with Computer Digital Image Analysis system served to examine large skin arteries of the crus and the foot in 152 human specimens. Their sources were: 1. popliteal artery (rr. gastrocnemii:medialis--62.89%, lateralis--78.95%), 2. anterior tibial artery (a. peronealis lateralis superior--97.37%, a. peronealis lateralis inferior--62.50%, a. collateralis inferior lateralis--78.95%), 3. posterior tibial artery (r. circumflexus fibulae--75.66%, r. soleus lateralis--48.03%, r. musculi flexoris hallucis longi--84.87%), 4. peroneal artery (r. perforans--86.84%) and 5. medial plantar artery (r. profundus--89.47%). The following ones characterized themselves with the longest course: a. peronealis lateralis superior (112 +/- t21 mm), r. gastrocnemius medialis (93 +/- 11 mm) and r. soleus lateralis (91 +/- 8 mm). The largest flaps supplied successively: r. gastrocnemius medialis (8530 +/- 1125 mm2), a. peronealis lateralis superior (7920 +/- 1227 mm2), r. profundus a. plantaris medialis (7580 +/- 1820 mm2), r. gastrocnemius lateralis (7320 +/- 1320 mm2), r. soleus lateralis (7140 +/- 1630 mm2) and a. collateralis inferior lateralis (6220 +/- 1981 mm2).
