Iliac Artery (other)
In human anatomy, the iliac arteries are three arteries located in the region of the ilium in the pelvis: *Common iliac artery – forms at terminus of the aorta *External iliac artery – forms where the common iliac artery bifurcates, continues as the femoral artery at the inguinal ligament *Internal iliac artery – forms where the common iliac artery bifurcates, supplies the perineum and sexual organs. See also * Iliac vein 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 ... {{disambig Arteries Perineum Pelvis ...

Ilium (bone)
The ilium () (plural ilia) is the uppermost and largest part of the hip bone, and appears in most vertebrates including mammals and birds, but not bony fish. All reptiles have an ilium except snakes, although some snake species have a tiny bone which is considered to be an ilium. The ilium of the human is divisible into two parts, the body and the wing; the separation is indicated on the top surface by a curved line, the arcuate line, and on the external surface by the margin of the acetabulum. The name comes from the Latin (''ile'', ''ilis''), meaning "groin" or "flank". Structure The ilium consists of the body and wing. Together with the ischium and pubis, to which the ilium is connected, these form the pelvic bone, with only a faint line indicating the place of union. The body ( la, corpus) forms less than two-fifths of the acetabulum; and also forms part of the acetabular fossa. The internal surface of the body is part of the wall of the lesser pelvis and gives ...

Iliac Vein
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 * External iliac vein, terminates at the common iliac vein, drains the femoral vein * Internal iliac vein, terminates at the common iliac vein, drains pelvic organs and perineum The perineum in humans is the space between the anus and scrotum in the male, or between the anus and the vulva in the female. The perineum is the region of the body between the pubic symphysis (pubic arch) and the coccyx (tail bone), includi ... {{DEFAULTSORT:Iliac Vein Perineum Pelvis Veins ...

Iliac Fossa
The iliac fossa is a large, smooth, concave surface on the internal surface of the Ilium (bone), ilium (part of the three fused bones making the hip bone). Structure The iliac fossa is bounded above by the iliac crest, and below by the Arcuate line (ilium), arcuate line. It is bordered in front and behind by the anterior and posterior borders of the Ilium (bone), ilium. The iliac fossa gives origin to the iliacus muscle. The obturator nerve passes around the iliac fossa. It is perforated at its inner part by a nutrient canal. Below it there is a smooth, rounded border, the arcuate line (ilium), arcuate line, which runs anterior, inferior, and medial. When the "left" or "right" adjective is used (e.g "right iliac fossa"), the iliac fossa usually means one of the groin, inguinal regions of the Quadrants and regions of abdomen, nine regions of the abdomen.

Iliac Fascia
The iliac fascia, or Abernethy's fascia, is a fascia in the region of the ilium of the pelvis. It has the following connections: * ''laterally'', to the whole length of the inner lip of the iliac crest. * ''medially'', to the linea terminalis of the lesser pelvis, where it is continuous with the periosteum. At the iliopectineal eminence it receives the tendon of insertion of the Psoas minor, when that muscle exists. Lateral to the femoral vessels it is intimately connected to the posterior margin of the inguinal ligament, and is continuous with the transversalis fascia. Immediately lateral to the femoral vessels the iliac fascia is prolonged backward and medialward from the inguinal ligament as a band, the iliopectineal fascia, which is attached to the iliopectineal eminence. This fascia divides the space between the inguinal ligament and the hip bone into two lacunæ or compartments: * the ''medial'' vascular lacuna transmits the femoral vessels. * the ''lateral'' muscular l ...
