The common iliac artery, and all of its branches, exist as paired structures (that is to say, there is one on the left side and one on the right). The distribution of the common iliac artery is basically the pelvis and lower limb (as the femoral artery) on the corresponding side.
In human anatomy, the iliac arteries are three arteries located in the region of the ilium in the pelvis: Common iliac artery – forms at terminus of the aorta External iliac artery – forms where the common iliac artery bifurcates, continues as the femoral artery at the inguinal ligament
Goes upward to anastomose with superior epigastric artery (a branch of internal thoracic artery). Deep circumflex iliac artery: Goes laterally, travelling along the iliac crest of the pelvic bone. Femoral artery [3] Terminal branch. When the external iliac artery passes posterior to the inguinal ligament, its name changes to femoral artery.

The lengths of the common iliac and internal iliac arteries bear an inverse proportion to each other, the internal iliac artery being long when the common iliac is short, and vice versa. The place of division of the internal iliac artery varies between the upper margin of the sacrum and the upper border of the greater sciatic foramen.

The lateral sacral arteries is an artery in the pelvis that arises from the posterior division of the internal iliac artery. It later splits into two smaller branches, a superior and an inferior. It later splits into two smaller branches, a superior and an inferior.
The superficial branch passes over the piriformis muscle. [2] It enters the deep surface of the gluteus maximus muscle, and divides into numerous branches. [2] Some branches supply the muscle and anastomose with the inferior gluteal artery, while others perforate its tendinous origin, and supply the integument covering the posterior surface of the sacrum, anastomosing with the posterior ...
