The iliolumbar artery is the first branch of the posterior trunk of the internal iliac artery. [1] It turns upward behind the obturator nerve and the external iliac artery and vein, to the medial border of the psoas major muscle, behind which it divides into: Lumbar branch of iliolumbar artery; Iliac branch of iliolumbar artery
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 lumbar branch of the iliolumbar artery (ramus lumbalis) supplies the psoas major and quadratus lumborum, anastomoses with the last lumbar artery, and sends a small spinal branch through the intervertebral foramen between the last lumbar vertebra and the sacrum, into the vertebral canal to supply the cauda equina
The arteries of the right side pass behind the inferior vena cava, and the upper two on each side run behind the corresponding crus of the diaphragm. The arteries of both sides pass beneath the tendinous arches which give origin to the psoas major , and are then continued behind this muscle and the lumbar plexus .

The thoracic aorta; The abdominal aorta; The common iliac arteries The hypogastric artery; The external iliac artery; The arteries of the lower ...
Typically, the artery divides into an anterior division and a posterior division, with the posterior division giving rise to the superior gluteal, iliolumbar, and lateral sacral arteries. The rest usually arise from the anterior division. Because it is variable, an artery may not be a direct branch, but instead might arise off a direct branch.
Divides in hilum of kidney. Both arteries give inferior suprarenal arteries and ureteral branches. gonadal: L2: Visceral: yes: ant. Ovarian artery in females; testicular artery in males lumbar: L1-L4: Parietal: yes: post. Four on each side that supply the abdominal wall and spinal cord. The fifth pair is the lumbar branches of the iliolumbar ...
The iliolumbar vein is the vena comitans of the iliolumbar artery. The obturator nerve crosses superficial to it. [1] A single vein is found more commonly than a double vein. [2] It drains vertebral segments four and five. [3] It is closely related to the ascending lumbar vein. [3]
