The left common iliac vein occasionally travels upwards to the left of the aorta to the level of the kidney, where it receives the left renal vein and crosses in front of the aorta to join the inferior vena cava. [4] The right common iliac vein is virtually vertical and lies behind and then lateral to its artery. Each common iliac vein receives ...
In human anatomy, iliac vein refers to several anatomical structures located in the pelvis: Common iliac vein, formed by the external and internal iliac veins, drains into the inferior vena cava; Deep circumflex iliac vein, formed by the union of the venae comitantes of the deep iliac circumflex artery, and joins the external iliac vein
The iliac branch of the iliolumbar artery (ramus iliacus) descends to supply the iliacus muscle; some offsets, running between the muscle and the bone, anastomose with the iliac branches of the obturator artery; one of these enters an oblique canal to supply the bone, while others run along the crest of the ilium, distributing branches to the gluteal and abdominal muscles, and anastomosing in ...
The median sacral vein (or middle sacral veins) is a vein of the abdomen. It accompanies the median sacral artery along the front of the sacrum. [1] It ends in the left common iliac vein. Sometimes, it ends in the angle of junction of the two common iliac veins.
The superior, of large size, passes medialward, and, after anastomosing with branches from the middle sacral, enters the first or second anterior sacral foramen, supplies branches to the contents of the sacral canal, and, escaping by the corresponding posterior sacral foramen, is distributed to the skin and muscles on the dorsum of the sacrum, anastomosing with the superior gluteal.

A continuation of the femoral vein, [1] the external iliac vein starts at the level of the inguinal ligament. [2] It runs beside its corresponding artery and along the brim of the lesser pelvis to unite with the internal iliac vein anterior to the sacroiliac joint where it forms the common iliac vein.
