A Case of Multiple Posterior Intercostal Artery Common Trunks in Conjunction with Additional Arterial Variations

Several thoracic vasculature variations were observed in an 81-year-old male cadaver during routine dissection. These included 5 common trunks of posterior intercostal arteries, a descending branch of the right vertebral artery, and atypical neurovascular relationships within intercostal spaces. On...
