The internal iliac artery or hypogastric artery is one of the terminal branches of the common iliac artery. It arises approximately opposite the level of the intervertebral disc between L5 and S1 and lies anteromedial to the corresponding sacro-iliac joint.
The knowledge of branching, course, usual and unusual variations of various branches of internal iliac artery is of paramount importance in many clinical conditions and diseases. The study is undertaken to add more light to the vasculature of the pelvic organs in order to prevent any complications during or after surgery.
