The right hemipelvis of 98 patients was examined by angiography to determine the occurrence and location of the corona mortis artery. This arterial anastomosis was found in 28.5% (28 of 98). Its incidence was 30.5% (18 of 59) in men and 25.6% (10 of 39) in women; this difference was not significant ( p>0.05). The distance from the symphysis pubis to the anastomotic artery averaged 33.4 mm (range 21.4-41 mm). It was 31.8 mm (range 21.4-39.3 mm) in men and 36.2 mm (range 25-41 mm) in women; this difference was significant ( p<0.05).
