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.
The 2 umbilical arteries are continuous with the internal iliac arteries and carry deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta. The most common abnormality of the umbilical cord is a single umbilical artery (SUA), which occurs in 0.5% to 2.5% of pregnancies. This finding is sometimes referred to as a 2-vessel cord. The loss of 1 umbilical artery likely occurs secondary to thrombotic atrophy of a previously normal artery.
