Wetin na di Popliteal Artery? Usay dɛn de?

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, di Popliteal Artery na wan big blɔd vesel na yu leg. Fɔ tɔk di kɔrɛkt tin, na wan branch pan di big blɔd vesel we de na yu shɔl we dɛn kɔl di Femoral Artery . I kin bigin na di midul pat na yu shɔl, dɔn i kin go biɛn yu ni, ɛn kɛr blɔd go na yu leg we de dɔŋ. Yu ɔ dɔktɔ kin fil di Popliteal Pulse bay we yu put yu an dairekt biɛn yu ni.

wi tu leg dεm, dat na di rayt leg εn di lεft leg, gεt dis popliteal atεri.

Yu tink se dis at go sheb mɔ?

yes, dכn di kכn jכint, di popliteal atεri de sheb to sכm sכm branch dεm. di men wan dεm na di antεriכr tibial atεri εn di tibioperoneal trכnk (sכmtεm dεn kin kכl am tibiofibular trכnk ). di tibioperoneal trכnk na in de kכri bכdi to di bak pat pan yu shin εn di sכmכl bon we de na di כdasay fכ yu leg (di fibula).

Ɔl dɛn smɔl smɔl blɔd vesel ya de branch aut dis we, ɛn leta dɛn kin kam togɛda fɔ gi yu fut ful blɔd. Tink bɔt am lɛk tik we de branch frɔm in rut fɔ kɛr wata go na di lif dɛn.

Wetin na di impɔtant tin bɔt di Popliteal Artery?

di Popliteal Artery na wan rili imכtant pat pan wi bכdi in sεkyulatory sistεm . I de ɔnda di kategori we dɛn kɔl di periferik at . Dat min se, di at dɛn we de kɛr blɔd kɔmɔt na di at to di pat dɛn na di bɔdi we de fa.

Di Popliteal Artery de men wan fɔ gi blɔd to:
