Artery.BranchFrom

Left ventricle

Artery.BranchTo

Ascending aorta: Right and left coronary arteries Arch of aorta (supra-aortic vessels): Brachiocephalic trunk Left common carotid artery Left subclavian artery Descending aorta, thoracic part: Left bronchial arteries Esophageal arteries to the thoracic part of the esophagus Third to eleventh posterior intercostal arteries and the subcostal arteries Descending aorta, abdominal part: Parietal branches: Inferior phrenic arteries Lumbar arteries Median sacral artery Visceral branches: Celiac trunk Middle suprarenal arteries Superior mesenteric artery Renal arteries Gonadal arteries (testicular in males, ovarian in females) Inferior mesenteric artery Terminal branches: Common iliac arteries Median sacral artery

Artery.Vein

Combination of coronary sinus, superior vena cava and inferior vena cava

Artery.Precursor

Truncus arteriosus, fourth left branchial artery, paired dorsal aortae (combine into the single descending aorta)

Artery.Supplies

The systemic circulation(entire body with exception of the respiratory zone of the lung which is supplied by the pulmonary circulation)
