Fig 1 Volume-rendered images of the iliac arteries. a, “Pelvic inlet” view. b, Frontal view. The right common femoral artery is seen in continuity with a dilated internal iliac artery that runs a deep circular course within the pelvis (white arrows). The external iliac artery is absent and no persistent sciatic artery is seen.

Fig 2 Maximal-intensity projection over the pelvis, showing both the anterior and posterior division of the internal iliac artery to arise over the level at the superior margin of the right acetabulum. This is similar to the angiographic appearance in the described case (left internal iliac artery branches in Fig 11).
