Resumen
LLANO, E.G. et al. Irrigación del nervio isquiático en caninos. Rev. vet. [online]. 2017, vol.28, n.1, pp.14-18. ISSN 1669-6840.
The objective was to determine origin and segmental distribution of blood vessels that constitute the extrinsic system in the irrigation of the dog sciatic nerve. We worked with 30 pelvic limbs previously injected with colored latex. After the dissection material was preserved by immersion in a solution of 10% formalin. Findings show that the proximal segment of the sciatic nerve at the trochanteric fossa of the femur is supplied by branches of the caudal gluteal artery. The distal region at the middle and distal thirds of the femur is supplied by branches of the distal caudal femoral artery. This irrigation characteristic should be considered when making surgical and orthopedic maneuvers in this species.
