Posterior ntierosseous. it joins the jjosterior carpal l^raneh of the uhiar artery. This artery gives ofF, near its origin, the interosseous recurrent l)ranch. The interosseous recurrent artery (a. intcrossea recurrens) (Fig. 464) is a large vessel which ascends to the interval between the external condyle and olecranon, on or through the fibres of the Supinator [brevis], but beneath the Anconeus, anastomosing with a branch from tire superior profunda, / J^ _ Descending branch from and with the posterior ulnar / recurrent and anastomotica magna. The muscular branches (rami musculares) are dis- tributed to the muscles along the ulnar side of the forearm. The anterior ulnar carpal {ramus carpeus volaris) (Fig. 463) is a small vessel which crosses the front of the car- pus beneath the tendons of the Flexor profundus and in- osculates with a correspond- ing branch of the radial artery. The posterior ulnar carpal (ramus carpeus dorsalis) (Fig. 464) arises immediately above the pisiform bone, and winds backward beneath the tendon of the Flexor carpi ulnaris; it passes across the dorsal surface of the carpus be- neath the Extensor tendons to anastomose with a corre- sponding branch of the radial artery and complete the pos- terior carpal arch (rete carpi dorsale) (Fig. 464). Imme- diately after its origin it gives off a small branch, which runs along the ulnar side of the fifth metacarpal bone, and supplies the ulnar side of the dorsal sur- face of the little finger. The profunda branch (rom- us volaris profundus) (Fig. 463) passes deeply inward be- tween the Abductor minimi digiti and Flexor brevis min- imi digiti, near their origins; it anastomoses with the termi- nation of the radial artery, completing the deep palmar arch. The continuation of the trimk of the ulnar artery in the hand forms the greater part of the superficial palmar
