“…Similarly, Requarth and Miller [ 4 ] showed that computed tomography angiography had high sensitivity for identifying AOA origins. Others have measured OA diameters and reported significant variability that ranged from 1.63 mm to 28.3 mm [ 11 , 19 , 20 ]. In their study investigating different aspects of OA anatomy, Sañudo et al [ 14 ] noted variations in the number of OA origins, where 96.55% of OA had a single origin, 3.02% had a double origin, and 0.43% had a triple origin.…”

“…We report 16.7% of 132 OA with corona mortis presentation. Notably, corona mortis, which involves an anastomosis between the OA and inferior epigastric artery, increases the risk of surgical complications [17][18][19][20]. Therefore, the potential for life-threatening bleeding underscores the importance of identifying OA variations that lead to corona mortis [2,11,15,17,18,20].…”

The obturator artery (OA) is typically a branch of the anterior division of the internal iliac artery. However, an aberrant obturator artery origin may lead to clinical complications. Because of its location in the pelvic cavity, the OA is at high risk of injury or laceration during a variety of pelvic surgeries. Regarding this, variations in the origins of the OA may result in bleeding that can often be overlooked, rendering treatment ineffective. Our study aimed to assess the origins and course of the OA in Midwestern American donor bodies. Sixty-two donor bodies were obtained from the Gift of Body Donation Program at A.T. Still University’s Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine. The origin of each OA was documented and photographed. The OA was identified by observing the vessel's passage through the obturator foramen. Of 132 OAs studied, 72 (54.5%) had an aberrant OA. Further, 22 (16.7%) had an aberrant OA origin from the inferior epigastric artery, 20 (15.2%) had an aberrant OA origin from the posterior division of the internal iliac artery, 22 (16.7%) had an aberrant OA origin from dual origins of the anterior division of the internal iliac artery and the inferior epigastric artery, and eight (6.1%) had other aberrant OA origins. Overall, our results indicated anatomical variations are common in the origins and course of the OA. These data highlight the importance of considering variations in the OA and the prevalence of those variations during vascular and orthopedic procedures.
