title: [Internal iliac artery: functional anastomosis value and pelvic surgery application].
abstract: The vascularization of the intra and extra pelvic organs of adults, children and neonates (male and female) is studied in 17 pelvis, in which the vascular system has been injected with colored Altufix p10 and gelatinous india ink. The pelvic region constitute a true vascular crossroad of two anastomotic networks, one arterial, originate from the visceral and parietal branches of iliac internal and external arteries, femoral and abdominal aorta by inferior mesenteric artery; the other one, which morphology is incompletely superposable in diameter. Each organ is tributary of characteristic vascular system from adventitious to mucosa with direct or recurrential manner between striated muscle fibers and mucosal layers. This duality of two systems, vascular and anastomotic provides the anatomic direction of vascular suppliance after troncular iliac artery binding and determines the vitality of the organ.
