RESUMEN

Anomalies of the ramification of arteries in the upper extremity are an important consideration due to the large number of invasive procedures, both diagnostic and therapeutic, performed particularly in the cubital region of the upper limb. It is important for health professionals to be aware of arterial variation to prevent complications during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Here, we describe a rare unilateral anomaly of the brachial artery which courses subcutaneously through the right arm to the cubital region in a 75 year-old female patient.
