| conjunctival arteries | anterior conjunctival artery, posterior conjunctival artery |
| coronary arteries | The arteries that supply the heart with oxygenated blood. There are a number of vessels that are important with regard to coronary artery disease, but the right coronary artery, posterior descending, left main coronary artery, left anterior descending and left circumflex are probably the most frequently surgically grafted coronary vessels.

| cortical arteries | Branches of the anterior, middle, and posterior cerebral artery's that supply the cerebral cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myometrial arcuate arteries | Branches of the uterine and ovarian artery's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myometrial radial arteries | Continuations of the myometrial arcuate artery's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pontine arteries | Several small branches of the basilar artery distributed to the pons. Synonym: arteriae pontis, rami ad pontem. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterolateral central arteries | The circumflex mesencephalic branches, several small branches of the postcommunical part of the posterior cerebral artery distributed to the lateral posterior part of the midbrain. Synonym: arteriae centrales posterolaterales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posteromedial central arteries | The interpeduncular perforating branches, several small branches from the precommunical part of the posterior cerebral artery supplying the posterior medial part of the midbrain. Synonym: arteriae centrales posteromediales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| helicine arteries of the penis | The coiled terminal branches of the deep and dorsal arteries of the penis. Parasympathetic stimulation causes them to uncoil, allowing blood at arterial pressure to fill the cavernous tissue causing erection. Synonym: arteriae helicinae penis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| segmental arteries of kidney | The branches of the renal artery that supply the anatomical segments of kidney. Usually five in number, they are end arteries and give off interlobar, arcuate and interlobular arteries in sequence. The latter send afferent arterioles to the glomeruli as well as branches to the kidney capsule. The segmental arteries of the kidney are identified as: anterior inferior (arteriae segmenti anterioris inferioris renis ); anterior superior (arteriae segmenti anterioris superioris renis ); inferior (arteriae segmenti inferioris renis ); posterior (arteriae segmenti posterioris renis ); and superior (arteriae segmenti superioris renis ). Synonym: arteriae renis, arteries of kidney. (05 Mar 2000) |
