By dissections of 20 cold-preserved hands, we investigated the dorsal metacarpal arteries (DMA) with regard to reliability, origin and anastomoses. The first dorsal metacarpal artery showed a trifurcation with three vessels: Ramus ulnaris (A. metacarpalis dorsalis I), Ramus medialis and Ramus radialis (A. ulnodorsalis pollicis). The DMA II to IV were observed medially in their respective intermetacarpal spaces. The A. metacarpalis dorsalis V was unreliable in reaching the skin of dorsal proximal phalanges as in the DMA IV. Most reliable for reaching the skin of dorsal proximal phalanges were the radial arteries--first, second and third dorsal metacarpal arteries. The dorsal digital arteries originate close to one another at the level of the metacarpophalangeal joints. There was an increase of epifascial position, from radial to ulnar. Irregular palmar intermetacarpal anastomoses were found proximal to the ligamentum metacarpale transversum profundum but nearly consistently in the web space.
