OMAR

The story begins when blood in the aorta leaves the left ventricle to form the ascending
aorta, aortic arch, and descending aorta, which consists of the thoracic and abdominal
aorta.

The story continues regarding Arteries at the Head and Necks. Firstly, the
brachiocephalic, left common carotid, and left subclavian arteries branch from the aortic
arch to supply the head and the upper limbs.

Talking about the Veins of the Head and Neck. The internal jugular veins drain the brain,
anterior head, and anterior neck. The external jugular veins drain the posterior head and
posterior neck.

Subsequently, the common carotid arteries and the vertebral arteries supply the head. The
common carotid arteries divide to form the external carotids (which supply the face and
mouth) and the internal carotids (which supply the brain).

Finally we arrived to the end of the first part of the story which is, arteries of the Upper
Limbs.

The subclavian artery continues as the axillary artery and then as the brachial artery,
which branches to form the radial and ulnar arteries.

Veins of the Upper Limbs. The deep veins are the brachial, axillary, and subclavian; the
superficial veins are the basilic, cephalic, and median cubital. Draining the blood back
into the right atrium from the head neck and upper limb.
