It descends through the inguinal canal and anastomoses with the external pudendal and the scrotal branches of the perineal artery, and in the male with the internal spermatic artery also. In the male it accompanies the spermatic funiculus, supplying its coverings, including the cremaster. In Psoas major muscle Ureter.

Sometimes when the obturator branch of the hypogastric artery is absent, the pubic branch of the inferior epigastric artery enlarges and becomes the obturator artery, which descends to the obturator foramen either on the lateral or the medial s
