RESUMO
Knowledge of anatomic variation in vasculature is critical to safe medical intervention as conduits vary in morphology, architecture, and course. Tortuosity is a common anatomic variant in certain arterial beds; however, its prevalence in ulnar arteries is not well documented in the literature. Here we report two cases of tortuous ulnar arteries in patients being evaluated for upper extremity hemodialysis access.
