It is known that different ramification patterns can be seen during the development of the aa. of the lower extremities. There are numerous reports on the congenital anomalies of the lower limb arteries. We have found two rarely reported variations of the deep femoral a. From 100 lower extremities studied, one case of a duplicated deep femoral a. was observed in the right lower limb of a male newborn cadaver (1%). In another case, a deep femoral a. passing in front of the femoral v. was found in the left lower limb of a male newborn cadaver (1%). These two variations were explained on the basis of embryologic development and variations discussed in reports.
