Abstract

This work deals with the study of the visceral branches of the internal iliac artery in guinea pig. Twenty animals (10 males and 10 females), adults were sacrificed with ethylic ether, injected with contrasting substance into abdominal aorta and dissected through stereoscopic microscope. In results were described the origin and permeability of the umbilical artery and the origin and branching of the urogenital artery. These observations in the guinea pig were comparatively discussed with others similarly described in several mammalians including: another laboratorial rodents, cat, dog, rabbit and man.
