Palmar metacarpal arteries

The palmar metacarpal arteries arise from the convexity of the deep palmar arch.

[1] They run distally upon the palmar interossei muscles.

They anastomose at the clefts of the fingers with the common palmar digital arteries which arise from the superficial palmar arch.
