Common iliac bifurcates into internal/external iliac at:
Internal iliac trunks: 1st posterior branch: exits pelvis where? relationship to piriformis? 2nd/3rd posterior branches? |
L5-S1
posterior: 1st: superior gluteal exits between L-S trunk and S1 superior to piriformis 2nd: iliolumbar 3rd: lateral sacral arteries |
|
Internal iliac, anterior trunk:
1st branch? form what ligaments? What branches off umbilical a. before it obliterates? Ductus deferens artery is a branch of: |
1st: obliterated umbilical a.
medial umbilical ligaments Superior vesical a. Superior vesical a. |
|
Males have artery, women don't:
Women have this artery, men don't: may branch directly from internal iliac or internal pudendal/inferior vesical: runs a-i through obturator canal with obturator nerve: accessory obturator is usually a branch of: |
inferior vesical a.
vaginal a. middle rectal a. obturator a. inferior epigastric |
|
Artery closest to sacrospinous ligament, ischial spine:
terminates in what branches? leaves pelvis between S2-S3, enters gluteals inferior to piriformis: branch of internal iliac, runs over ureters, through base of broad ligament: |
internal pudendal a.
deep, dorsal a. of penis, clitoris inferior gluteal a. uterine a. |
|
arise from abd aorta, inf. to renal aa., sup to inf. mesenteric a.
Crosses the pelvic brim at: branches from aorta just as it bifurcates into L,R common iliacs: continuation of inf. mesenteric a: |
ovarian aa.
bifurcation of int/ext iliac middle sacral a. superior rectal a. |
|
Testes lymph drainage into where?
anterior pelvic viscera lymph drains into: gluteal, inferior pelvic, deep perineum lymph drains into: external/internal iliac nodes drain into: posterior/inferior pelvic viscera lymph drains into: |
lumbar nodes
external iliac nodes internal iliac nodes common iliac nodes sacral nodes |
|
Contributions to sciatic nerve:
Pudendal nerve: leaves pelvis through ______, between __________. contribution to superior gluteal nerve: leaves pelvis superior to ______. |
L4,5,S1-3
S2-4 leaves through greater sciatic foramen, between piriformis, coccygeus L4,5,S1 piriformis |
|
Nerve plexus just inferior to aortic bifurcation:
SNS, PNS, visceral afferent all synapse here: SNS/PNS effect on rectum/bladder? |
superior hypogastric
inferior hypogastric (pelvic) plexus SNS - inhibits rectal peristalsis PNS - stimulates contraction of rectum,bladder |
|
Pain from pelvic viscera above the pain line (peritoneum) follows what nerves?
Below peritoneum/pain line? |
SNS above
PNS below |
|
Rectal veins:
Superior drains into: Middle drains into: Inferior drains into: Clinical important in cancer, because they connect with _________. |
Superior - inferior mesenteric
Middle - internal iliac --> IVC Inferior - internal pudendal --> internal iliac internal vertebral venous plexus |
