Uro-Angiographic Contrast Agents—The Holy Grail
Published in Christoph de Haën, X-Ray Contrast Agent Technology, 2019
Right: Right leg of an anesthetized male patient suffering from diabetes-related gangrene in some tows. The popliteal artery is well visible, while the anterior (A) and the posterior (B) tibial arteries may be seen only for a short distance. The origin of the posterior tibial artery is markedly constricted and the lumen of the fibular artery (C) shows marked irregularities (Figure 2 in Brooks 1924).
The Gallbladder (GB)
Published in Narda G. Robinson, Interactive Medical Acupuncture Anatomy, 2016
Peroneal (fibular) artery: The largest and most important branch of the tibial artery. Provides muscular branches to the popliteus and other muscles occupying the posterior and lateral compartments of the leg. Supplies a nutrient artery to the fibula.

1. The circumflex fibular artery passes on a lateral path around the fibula’s neck going through the soleus muscle anastomosing then with the lateral inferior genicular artery, medial genicular arteries, and anterior tibial recurrent artery. It supplies both bone and articulation.

On physical examination, we have a normal weight patient (body mass index of 23.37). The presence of varicosis veins was seen on the right medial lower limb and foot (Figure 1). This was accompanied by discrete edema of the foot. No other skin changes were present. His lower extremities were well perfused with bilateral normal pulses. Clinical examination did not show sensory or motor deficits. However, a positive Tinel’s sign, evoking a needle sensation by slightly tapping the tibial nerve path, was noted. Venous duplex revealed a sufficient vena saphena magna bilateral without evidence of deep vein thrombosis. The varicosis veins in the right lower limb were partially thrombosed. New LMWH was administered and compressive stockings class two were prescribed. After two weeks, a positive evolution was noticed. Subsequently, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed, which illustrated an extensive venous malformation in the whole right lower limb. The largest component was seen anteromedian subcutaneously with a deeper connection towards the fibular artery and posterior tibial artery. There were both a muscular component, with ingrowth in the posterior tibial muscle, flexor hallucis longus muscle and flexor digitorum longus muscle, and osseous component with ingrowth in the tibial diaphyse.

The femoropopliteal and run-off segments were continuously scanned from the subinguinal region to the paramalleolar region with axial and sagittal scans. All segments were examined for their parietal characteristics; in addition, flow-velocity measurements were obtained using spectral Doppler imaging and colour Doppler imaging. Arteries were grouped into femoropopliteal or proximal (common, superficial, and deep femoral arteries, and popliteal artery) and infrageniculate or distal (tibiofibular trunk, anterior and posterior tibial arteries, and fibular artery) districts.
