Rare vascular variations — the ulnar artery and superficial brachioulnar artery. A case report and review of the literature

Our case report underscores the importance of precise preoperative imaging to identify vascular anomalies early on and at the same time minimise patient safety-related complications. Additionally, this new variation of the SBUA emphasises the need to integrate anatomical variations more thoroughly into medical education and research. The latter would ensure the systematical capture of their prevalence and implications to improve clinical practice in the long run.
