Q

What is a good way to remember which of the arteries are medial or lateral to each other?

A

It is easier to remember which arteries are NOT lateral to the vein. These arteries are:

  • Carotid
  • Right Brachiocephalic
  • Note: The Common iliac arteries will be directly superior to the common iliac vein- this is the only artery that is like this.
