“…The present study documented that the main blood supply of the Dromedary Camel digit was the A. digitalis plantaris communis III and the A. metatarsae plantaris III . While [ 12 , 13 ] in the Dromedary Camel and llama denoted that the A. digitalis plantaris communis III was the main blood supply of the hind limb digit. However, the blood supply of the camel forelimb digit was derived from the A. metacarpae plamaris III and the A. digitalis plamaris communis III .…”

“…Most arteries and a few small arterial branches of the limb in the Dromedary Camel were studied by macroscopic anatomy and angiography [ 2 , 11 ]. In Llama and Dromedary Camel, the caudal branch of the saphenous artery produces the plantar arteries and continues distally [ 12 , 13 ].…”

“…The main arteries and some small branches of the foot of the forelimb and hind limb of the Dromedary and Bactrian camels were described by drawing photos from dissecting specimens [ 2 , 14 ] respectively. The blood supply of the Dromedary Camel hind limbs and Llama feet were the plantar common digital III artery [ 12 , 13 ]. While at the forelimb of the Bactrian Camel, it was derived from the palmar metacarpal artery III and palmar common digital artery III [ 14 ].…”

Background The 3D computed tomography produces detailed images of the digit bones in addition to the angiograph render volume 3D of the CT shows the relation between the arteries, bones, and tissues of the digit. Therefore, the present study used those imaging techniques to provide a complete description of the digit bones and arteries’ origin, distribution, and course and their relations with surrounding structures in the Dromedary Camel. Which would serve as a guide for surgeons and students in distinguishing normal digit structures. The study used eight hind limbs of four adult camels of both sexes (two males and two females), aged 9–15 years (Mean ± SD, 11.80 ± 2.59 years). The samples were injected with latex with lead oxide were undergone 3D render volume CT (128-slice multi-detector CT scanning protocol) and angiography x-rays. Results The blood vessels and correlated structures such as bones, tendons, and ligaments were examined using 3D CT in all directions, which was easier to view than angiography and dissected specimens. The arterial supply to the camel’s hind foot was the A. digitalis plantaris communis III. The angiography render volume 3D of CT explained the blood supply of the bones and joints of digital regions and showed a good visualization of the many digit arteries. The metatarsals, the phalanges, and the sesamoid bones were visualized. A. plantaris medialis superficialis, A. digitalis plantaris communis III, A. digitalis plantaris communis II and IV, A. interdigitalis, rami articularis medialis and lateralis to the fetlock joint, ramus medialis and ramus lateralis of the A. digitalis plantaris communis III, A. digitalis plantaris propriae III et IV abaxialis, A. digitalis plantaris propriae III et IV axialis, Ramus phalangis axialis and abaxialis of the first phalanx, Ramus phalangis axialis and abaxialis of the second and third phalanges, and A. metatarsae plantaris III were visualized. The study discovered new blood vessel sources in dromedary camels, such as the ramus articularis to the fetlock and the ramus plantaris phalangis abaxialis proximalis and distalis of the first phalanx. Conclusions The digital circulation angiography investigates the circulatory pattern of the camel hind digit, which can assist clinicians in diagnosing digit region affections. 3D CT explained improved visualization of bones and arteries, including many small branches in relation to surrounding structures, in some views better than others.

“…6). Su distribución hasta donde se pudo observar en la alpaca se ajusta más a los resultados obtenidos en los estudios sobre las arterias del pie de la llama (Graziotti et al, 2000), presentando diferencias importantes con el canino, equino y bovino (Getty et al, 1990;Shively, 1993;König et al, 2005), respecto al origen y ramificación de varias arterias involucradas.…”

The Suspensory Apparatus and Digital Flexor Muscles of the Llama (Lama glama) 2: The Pelvic Limb

This paper provides data (text and illustrations) about the digital flexor muscles of the pelvic limb and the / metatarsophalangeal joint, evaluating the suspensory (support) apparatus and weight bearing structures. Similar to the above mentioned paper, a literature search provided incomplete information about these anatomical structures. As in the thoracic limb, unique anatomically variations exist in the pelvic limb of the llama. The caudal tibial muscle is fused with the lateral head of the deep digital flexor muscle (DDF), and the soleus muscle is missing. A symmetrical unexpected lumbricalis pedis muscle was found; the tendons are fusing with the axial branches of the lateral tendon of the long digital extensor muscle. A quadratus plantae muscle, also unexpected is present on the medial aspect of the tarsal region. The superficial digital flexor muscle (SDF) resembles that of the domestic ruminants. The metacarpo/ metatarsophalangeal joints, referred to as the fetlock joints (FJ) are very different from those of the domestic ruminants. Particular structures were found and they will be described and illustrated in the text. The anatomy of the suspensory (support) apparatus in the pelvic limb is evaluated in this paper.
