These branches form the direct continua- tion of the dorsal vessels of the anterior tibial plexus. The arteria pudenda communis (Fig. 70, No. 20) passes to the depressor coccygeus muscle, gives off a branch to the caudal part of the kidney, crosses the ureter, provides the ischio-pubic and pubio-coccygeus, or depressor coccygis lateralis, muscles, and on.
