[Surgical anatomy of extraorganic anastomoses of inferior vesical artery]. / Khirurgicheskaya anatomiya vneorgannykh anastomozov nizhnei mochepuzyrnoi arterii.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the variants of topography and quantity of extraorganic anastomoses of inferior vesical artery (IVA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included 186 corpses of males (age 22-82 years) and 109 females (age 32-93 years). All people died from accidental causes not associated with pelvic organ diseases. Dissection, vascular injection and statistical analysis were performed. RESULTS: IVA forms anastomoses with other branches of internal iliac artery in 11.3% of cases on the right and in 12.4% of cases on the left in males. These collaterals in females are noted in 9.2% of cases on the right and in 7.3% of cases on the left. Mean length of extraorganic anastomoses of a. vesicalis inferior in males is 1.4 cm, mean diameter - 1.7 mm. Mean length of such collaterals in females is 1.7 cm, mean diameter - 1.7 mm. Extraorganic anastomoses are more common in proximal and middle thirds of IVA, rarely - in distal third. Linear correlation between diameters of a. vesicalis inferior and its extraorganic anastomoses was not detected in females but found in males. CONCLUSION: Extraorganic anastomoses of IVA are characterized by certain pattern of origination in males and in females.

[Surgical anatomy of intrapelvic anastomoses of superior gluteal artery]. / Khirurgicheskaya anatomiya vnutritazovykh anastomozov verkhnei yagodichnoi arterii.

OBJECTIVE: To determine topographic variants and the number of intrapelvic anastomoses of superior gluteal artery (SGA). MATERIAL AND METHODS: There were 186 corpses of males aged 22-82 years and 109 corpses of females aged 32-93 years. All of them died from accidental causes not associated with pelvic organ diseases. Dissection, vascular injection and statistical analysis were used. RESULTS: In males, SGA forms anastomoses with other branches of internal iliac artery in 24.2% of cases on the right and in 21.0% of cases on the left. Similar collaterals in females are observed in 13.8% of cases on the right and in 15.6% of cases on the left. Mean length of intrapelvic anastomoses of a. glutea superior in males is 1.4 cm, mean diameter - 2.1 mm. Mean length of such collaterals is 2.0 cm in females, mean diameter - 2.2 mm. As a rule, anastomoses are observed in proximal and middle thirds of intrapelvic segment of SGA. Distal anastomoses are rare. Linear correlation between the diameters of a. glutea superior and intrapelvic anastomoses was not detected in females but was fixed in males. CONCLUSION: Intrapelvic anastomoses of SGA are characterized by certain pattern of discharge in men and women.

[Anatomy and topography of extra-organic lymphatic vessels and regional lymph nodes of human prostate]. / Anatomiia i topografiia vneorgannykh limfaticheskikh uzlov predstatel'noi zhelezy u cheloveka.

The work has been performed on 50 complexes of the small pelvis organs of men at the age of 22-88 years. The interstitial injection of Gerota mass has been used. The extra-organic++ lymphatic vessels (LV) get out of the lateral surfaces and base of the gland. Their amount varies from 2 up to 14, diameter 0.1-1.5 mm. Three directions of LN course have been detected. The regional lymph nodes are external, internal and common iliac, superior and inferior rectal and lumbar lymph nodes. Dimensions of the area where the regional lymph nodes are situated, are defined.
