Circulation of Back, Shoulder, and Pectoral Regions
There are two major arteries that accomplish this: 
Subclavian Artery and Axillary Artery
There are two major arteries that accomplish this:
Subclavian Artery and Axillary Artery
Subclavian Artery Origin on Left and Right
Asymmetric Artery:
Origin on right side is brachiocephalic trunk and origin on left side is the aortic arch. Arises posterior to sternoclavicular joint and right lateral to manubrium.
Divided into three divisions: Part one is anteior to scalene muscle, part two is posterior to scalene muscle, and part three is lateral to scalene muscle.

After it passes the clavicle, it becomes the axillary artery
Subclavian Artery Divsions of Medial portion of Subclavian Artery
Internal thoracic (mammary)-goes inwards and anteriorly

Vertebral Artery- goes up through the transverse foramina of C spine and is important for brain blood carriage

Internal thoracic (mammary)-goes inwards and anteriorly

Vertebral Artery- goes up through the transverse foramina of C spine and is important for brain blood carriage

Thyrocervical trunk-runs into thoracic cavity and lies at the posterior aspect of the thoracic wall, lateral to sternum. Is important for recirculation or anastomosis during coronary bypasses.
Transverse Cervical Artery of the Thyrocervical Arterial Trunk
Arises from Medial Branch of subclavian artery

Splits into superficial branch and deep branch: superficial cervical artery and dorsal scapular artery
Arises from Medial Branch of subclavian artery

Splits into superficial branch and deep branch: superficial cervical artery and dorsal scapular artery
Thryocervical Arterial Trunk
Splits into: 
transverse cervical artery
suprascapular artery
Splits into:
transverse cervical artery
suprascapular artery
Suprascapular Artery
Goes to the suprascapular fossa and the suprascapular region.
Goes to the suprascapular fossa and the suprascapular region.
Subclavian Artery Division at the Posterior aspect of the subclavian artery
Becomes the Costocervical Arterial Trunk:
composed of Supreme Intercostal Artery and Deep Cervical Artery
Becomes the Costocervical Arterial Trunk:
composed of Supreme Intercostal Artery and Deep Cervical Artery
Deep cervical artery
will go deep into the neck structure
supreme intercostal artery
Follows under the clavicle and first rib
Lateral Part of Subclavian Artery
Has NO branches.

At times, the dorsal scapular artery may arise independent from this part of the subclavian artery

The lateral border of first rib is where this part of the subclavian artery becomes the AXILLARY artery
Subscapular artery
Arises from Axillary artery from subclavian artery
Thoracodoral artery
Arises from the subscapular artery from axillary artery
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AXILLARY ARTERY IS BLOCKED?
Blood flow still remains because the circumflex scapular branch of subscapular artery becomes reversed to allow blood to flow to the distal portion of the axillary artery and also via deep brachial artery
