28 Non-Pathogenic adult cadaveric specimens of prostate were dissected, the arteries supplying them were painted with red Asian paint. It was observed that incidence of Inferior vesical artery is 12(42.8%), Internal pudendal artery is 4(14.21%), obturator artery is 4(14.21%). Umbilical artery 4(14.21%), Middle rectal artery is 2(7.14%), and gluteopudendal trunk is 2(7.14%). These findings differ with previous studies abroad. This study will certainly help the clinicians, Uro-surgeons &Radiologists because benign hypertrophy of prostate is quite common after the age of fifty and in India second leading cause of cancer death is prostatic cancer.(1)
