[Radiological anatomy of the arteries of the foot].
Two hundred arteriographies of the feet performed after injuries were studied. The patients had no arterial disease. Various patterns of the vascularisation of the feet are described. The authors emphasize the frequent variations of distribution which are sometimes different from the usual pattern but are however not pathological and can be explained by hemodynamic disturbances. The authors also describe some anatomical criteria which are useful to identify the different arteries of the feet on the arteriographies with different positions of the feet. These criteria will be very useful with digital angiography.
