Table 2 The main arterial variations at the plantar aspect of the distal part of the metatarsus and digit in camel

• Ramus interdigitalis

• It arose from the ramus anastomoticus cum between the A. digitalis plantaris communis III and the A. metatarsae plantaris III (Figs. 3/5; 4/5; 8/6).

• It arose from A. digitalis plantaris communis III in one case (Fig. 2/7).

• Ramus articularis to the fetlock

• The ramus articularis medialis has arisen from the A. digitalis plantaris communis II (Figs. 2/16; 3/7; 5/8).

• The ramus articularis lateralis has arisen from the Ramus lateralis of the A. digitalis plantaris communis III (Fig. 5/7).

• In one case, the ramus articularis lateralis originated from the A. digitalis plantaris communis II itself (Fig. 3/6).

• Ramus plantaris phalangis abaxialis proximalis of the 1st phalanx

• Only one abaxial branch (Figs. 2/13; 5/9).

• In one case, there was also an axial branch (Fig. 6/5).

• In one case, it anastomosed with the articular branch of the lateral one and perforated the fetlock joint capsule (Fig. 5/7,8).

• Ramus plantaris phalangis abaxialis distalis of the 1st phalanx

• Only one abaxial branch (Figs. 2/14; 4/11).

• In one case, there was also an axial branch (Fig.6/7).
