	VI. The Arteries. 5b. 2. The External Iliac Artery. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
		—In front and medially, the artery is in relation with the peritoneum, subperitoneal areolar tissue, the termination of the ileum and frequently the vermiform process on the right side, and the sigmoid colon on the left, and a thin layer of fascia, derived from the iliac fascia, which surrounds the artery and vein.
		As the inferior epigastric artery passes obliquely upward from its origin it lies along the lower and medial margins of the abdominal inguinal ring, and behind the commencement of the spermatic cord.
		It frequently springs from the external iliac, by a common trunk with the obturator.

	Iliac artery Summary
		The external iliac arteries continue on to supply blood to the legs (lower limb) and the internal iliac arteries supply blood to pelvic and peritoneal structure.
		In the male, the internal iliac branches supply a portion of the arterial blood to the testis and prostate.
		External iliac artery - forms when the common iliac artery bifurcates, continues as the femoral artery at the inguinal ligament.

		Common iliac artery - forms at terminus of the aorta.
		External iliac artery - forms when the common iliac artery bifurcates, continues as the femoral artery at the inguinal ligament.

		The abdominal aorta divides to form the "common iliac arteries" in the lower abdomen, and these vessels supply blood to the pelvic organs, gluteral region, and legs.
		Each common iliac artery descends a short distance and divides into an internal and an external branch.
		The external iliac artery passes beneath the inguinal ligament in the lower part of the abdomen and becomes the femoral artery.

		It confirmed the narrow neck of the pseudoaneurysm, arising from the lateral surface of the external iliac artery.
		For isolated iliac aneurysm, a proximal segment of relatively normal iliac artery is required for implantation and attachment of the proximal part of the graft; this proximal implant area or attachment zone should be at least 10mm in length and free of mural thrombus.
		Severe angulation or tortuosity of the iliac segment and firm calcification of the arterial wall are negative factors that may lead to failure of the procedure.

		The lateral border of the dissection is developed from the pubis and the circumflex iliac vein to the level of the common iliac artery and medial to the genitofemoral nerve and external and internal iliac vessels.
		The common iliac and external iliac arteries are displaced medially, exposing the bifurcation of the common iliac artery and nodal tissue.

		Hematoma or hemorrhage in the midline supramesocolic area of zone 1 is cause to suspect the presence of an injury to the supra renal aorta, the celiac axis, the proximal superior mesenteric artery, or the proximal renal artery.
		Interposition grafting and replacement of the renal artery with either the hepatic artery (on the right) or the splenic artery (on the left) have been used on rare occasions, but such approaches ordinarily are not indicated unless the injured kidney is the only one the patient has.
		On rare occasions, it may be preferable either to mobilize the ipsilateral internal iliac artery to serve as a replacement for the external iliac artery or to transpose one iliac artery to the side of the contralateral iliac artery.
