The data of 160 arteriograms of the hand digits of the persons died a sudden death are presented. In the first and second fingers the internal diameter of the radial edge arteries is significantly less than the ulnar one, and in the fourth and fifth fingers an opposite relation is observed. In the third finger the difference in the diameters is minimal and not reliable. The data obtained can be used for performing replantations and revascularization of the fingers.
