| arteria ciliaris anterior | <anatomy, artery> One of several arteries derived from muscular branches of the ophthalmic which perforate the anterior part of the sclera and anastomose with posterior ciliary arteries. Synonym: arteria ciliaris anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |

Anastomoses: with central retinal artery and long and anterior ciliary arteries (at the ora serrata). Synonym: arteria ciliaris posterior brevis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria ciliaris posterior longa | long posterior ciliary artery |

Synonym: arteria circumflexa femoris lateralis, lateral circumflex artery of thigh, lateral femoral circumflex artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria circumflexa femoris medialis | <anatomy, artery> Origin, profunda femoris; distribution, hip joint, muscles of thigh; anastomoses, inferior gluteal, superior gluteal, lateral circumflex femoral. Synonym: arteria circumflexa femoris medialis, medial circumflex artery of thigh, medial femoral circumflex artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria circumflexa humeri anterior | <anatomy, artery> Origin, axillary; distribution, shoulder joint and biceps muscle; anastomoses, posterior circumflex humeral artery. Synonym: arteria circumflexa humeri anterior, anterior humeral circumflex artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
