Surgical anatomy of the internal thoracic artery in newborns is insufficiently studied. This vessel may be of interest to doctors of various specialties - traumatologists, surgeons, neuropathologists, radiologists, in particular, as aplace of insertion of a catheter for semi-selective angiography of the subclavian artery and its branches, for example, the vertebral artery. The latter is becoming increasingly important for the recognition of various pathologies associated with birth trauma of the cervical spine and its contents in newborns.
