The variations in blood vessels are common and have long received the attention of anatomists and surgeons. The true pelvic cavity usually refers to that part of pelvis, which has its bony walls, the sacrum and lower part of hip bone. This small area is well covered by bones and has important structures namely the pelvic viscera, pelvic floor muscles, vessels and nerves supplying it. The aim of the study was to know the branching pattern of internal iliac artery based on the Adachis classification, along with length and thickness of artery. The internal iliac artery was traced from its origin, course, branching pattern, length and thickness of the trunk of internal iliac artery was measured by using digital vernier calliper from its point of origin to bifurcation into anterior and posterior division. The length of right & left internal iliac artery ranged from 2.4 cm to 5.4 cm with average length of 3.943cm ± 0.859cm, whereas the length of left internal iliac artery ranged from 2.7cm to 4.7cm with average length of 3.610cm ± 0.626cm. Bilateral ligation of internal iliac artery is helpful in controlling postpartum haemorrhage. Applying ligatures on an anomalous blood vessel may lead to alarming haemorrhage. The most ideal point of ligation of internal iliac artery would be distal to its posterior division, since proximal ligation has been associated with buttock claudication and necrosis. Knowledge regarding the internal iliac artery and its branches is helpful in applying ligatures safely during pelvic surgeries.

Variaciones en el patrón de ramificación de la arteria ilíaca interna son ocasionalmente encontradas en las disecciones cadavéricas y las cirugías. Algunas de las variaciones son de importancia quirúrgica y clínica e ignorarlas podría derivar en alarmantes sangrados durante las prácticas quirúrgicas. Evaluamos las variantes en el patrón de la arteria ilíaca interna en un cadáver masculino. La división de la arteria ilíaca interna dio origen a las arterias rectal media y obturatriz. La arteria vesical superior tenía su origen en la arteria obturatriz. La división posterior de la arteria ilíaca interna dio lugar a las arterias iliolumbar, sacra lateral, glútea superior y pudenda interna. La arteria glútea inferior estaba ausente. Variations in the branching pattern of the internal iliac artery are occasionally encountered during cadaveric dissections and surgeries. Some of the variations are of surgical and clinical importance and ignoring them might result in alarming bleeding during surgical procedures. We report variant branching pattern of the right internal iliac artery in a male cadaveric specimen. The anterior division of the internal iliac artery gave origin to obturator and middle rectal arteries. Superior vesical artery took its origin from the obturator artery. The posterior division of the internal iliac artery gave iliolumbar, lateral sacral, superior gluteal and internal pudendal arteries. The inferior gluteal artery was absent.

Objetivo: Estudiar el patrón de ramificación de la arteria ilíaca interna del feto y que son equivalentes a la disposición de las ramas ilíacas internas en los adultos. Métodos: Veinticuatro mitades de pelvis fueron utilizados como muestras. Que se obtuvieron de fetos nacidos muertos, de 5 a 9 meses de edad gestacional. Resultados: la arteria ilíaca interna está en consonancia con la arteria ilíaca común y más grande que la arteria ilíaca externa. Tres tipos de ramificación se observaron sobre la base de las grandes ramas, a saber, la arteria glútea inferior, la arteria pudenda interna y la arteria glútea superior. Los resultados se correlacionaron con los patrones de ramificación descriptos por Piersol (1930). Conclusión: La disposición más común, tenía dos grandes troncos procedentes de la arteria iliaca interna, la posterior era la arteria glútea superior y la anterior se dividía en arterias pudenda y glútea inferior. Los otros patrones conducen variables en los adultos que son de importancia embriológicos y quirúrgicos. Objective: To study the branching pattern of fetal internal iliac artery and to correlate with the arrangement of the internal iliac branches in adults. Methods: Twenty four pelvic halves were used as specimens. They were obtained from the dead born fetuses of 5 to 9 months of gestational age. Results: Internal iliac artery was in line with the common iliac artery and larger than the external iliac artery.  Three types of branching were observed based on the large branches namely inferior gluteal artery, internal pudendal artery and superior gluteal artery. The findings were correlated with the patterns of branching described by Piersol (1930). Conclusion: The most common arrangement had two large trunks originating from internal iliac artery, the posterior one being superior gluteal artery and the anterior one divided into internal pudendal and inferior gluteal arteries. The other patterns lead to variable branching patterns in adults that are of embryological and surgical significance.

The distribution pattern of internal iliac artery (IIA) implies its bifurcation to two branches, the anterior and the posterior trunks. According to previous research, IIA indicates several anatomical variations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the types of these variations. The presence of these variations in the arteries is an important topic to urologists, gynecologists, radiologists, and general surgeons because they can be ruptured during surgical procedures in the perineal and pelvis region. Three databases were searched for the period from 1810 to January 2018 and a total of 75 studies were investigated. This study evaluated the branching of the internal iliac artery in several literatures and compared it with Adachi's classification. This finding can lead to improve surgical technique and safety in medical practice.
