Abstract	Address for Correspondence: Dr. Sween Walia, Assistant Prof. Anatomy Dept. PIMS, Jalandhar, Punjab, India. E-Mail: bhawanimodi.dr@gmail.com Introduction: The knowledge of the variations in site of origin and course of the profunda femoris artery and its circumflex branches has great clinical importance during diagnostic imaging procedures as well as during surgeries that are performed in the femoral triangle. Materials and Methods: We dissected 48 femoral triangles in 24 human cadavers which revealed interesting variations apart from the usual description about these arteries that is available in standard anatomy textbooks. Results: The most common site of origin of profunda femoris artery was from the lateral aspect of the femoral artery. A rare variation of trifurcation of right femoral artery was found. The distance of origin of profunda femoris from the midpoint of the inguinal ligament on the right and left side commonly placed between 21-30 mm. Discussion: Variations in the arterial patterns may be due to the divergence in the mode and proximo-distal level of branching or aberrant vessels that connect with the principal vessels, arcades or plexuses during the development of the blood vessels. Thus the knowledge of these variations can be of great help to the surgeons in reducing the chances of intra-operative secondary haemorrhage and post-operative complications.
