to the globus minor of the epididymis, in which latter situation 

 it anastomoses with the epididymal branch of the spermatic artery. 

 In the spermatic cord it also anastomoses with the cremasteric 

 branch of the deep epigastric. The deferential artery is sometimes 

 of large size, and then it takes the place of the spermatic artery, 

 if that vessel should be absent. One of the branches of the superior 

 vesical artery is sometimes spoken of as the middle vesical.

The inferior vesical artery (V) takes an inward course to the 

 lower portion of the bladder, which it supplies, giving branches to 

 the vesicula seminalis, ampulla of the vas deferens, and prostate 

 gland, and in the female to the vagina. It sometimes gives off 

 the deferential artery, and it may give origin to an accessory j 

 pudic. It anastomoses with the superior vesical and middle | 

 hemorrhoidal of its own side, and with its fellow of the opposite 

 side. . , 



The middle hemorrhoidal artery (V) often arises in common with
