Artery Tibial Recurrent Posterior

The tibial recurrent posterior artery (a.recurrens tibialis posterior) is a small artery that runs in the back of the tibia. It is a branch of the deep peroneal artery and is one of the main vessels providing blood supply to the muscles of the leg and foot.

The tibial recurrent posterior artery begins from the deep peroneal artery at the level of the posterior border of the tibial muscle. It then passes inferiorly and medially where it branches into two branches: the posterior tibial artery and the posterior peroneal artery.

The posterior tibial artery runs upward and forward, providing blood supply to the back of the leg. It passes through the tibial tunnel, where it may be compressed or squeezed. The posterior peroneal artery passes down and forward to the foot, where it supplies the peroneal muscles.

Proper functioning of the tibial recurrent posterior artery is essential to human health and well-being. Disturbances in its functioning can lead to various diseases, such as thrombosis, embolism, gangrene and others. It is important to know the anatomy of this artery and its role in the blood supply to prevent possible health problems.

The tibial recurrent posterior artery is one of the main vessels passing in the distal part of the hind limb. It is a branch of the posterior tibial artery and is responsible for the blood supply and supplies the lower muscles and joints of the leg.

The posterior tibial artery originates from the posterior surface of the middle part of the leg. After this, it follows back to the side to the front of the shin, crossing the popliteal
