Arteries of the Cerebral Peduncles Medial

The arteries of the cerebral peduncles of the medial type (a.pedunculares medianae) are one of the variants of the normal anatomical structure of the system of cerebral arteries. These arteries are of great importance for the blood supply to the brain and play an important role in the metabolism of nerve cells. In this article we will look at the physics and function of this brain structure, as well as possible deviations and the reasons for their occurrence.

The cerebral peduncle arteries were first described in 1694 by the German anatomist Tanis. The name comes from the Latin word "pedunculus", which means "leg". These vessels connect to the midbrain and cerebellum, providing them with the necessary amount of blood. The arteries are of the medial type, so
