Anatomy: (11-13) The umbilical arteries are the direct continuation of the internal iliac arteries. A catheter passed into an umbilical artery will usually enter the aorta via the internal iliac artery Occasionally the UAC will pass into the femoral artery via the external iliac artery or into the gluteal arteries.
There are usually two umbilical arteries present together with one umbilical vein in the umbilical cord. The umbilical arteries surround the urinary bladder and then carry all the deoxygenated blood out of the fetus through the umbilical cord. Inside the placenta, the umbilical arteries connect with each other at a distance of approximately 5 mm from the cord insertion in what is called the Hyrtl anastomosis.
