Abstract
We studied 40 cadavers of females who died at the age of 53.8±4.4 years. At autopsy of cadavers we studied the topography of superficial epigastric vessels. In investigated section material superficial epigastric artery was observed on both sides in 70% and vein - in 100% of cases. In 10% the superficial epigastric artery was absent on both sides. In 20% superficial epigastric artery was observed on one side, more often - left (75%). Regarding the middle of the inguinal ligament the superficial epigastric artery is always positioned laterally (0.8±0.2 cm), and vein - medially (0.9±0.1 cm). The distance between the superficial epigastric artery and the vein at the level of the inguinal ligament was 1.6±0.5 cm. Diameter of superficial epigastric artery at the level of the inguinal ligament was 1.7±0.2 mm and vein - 2.1±0.4 mm.
