The variant anatomy of pelvic vasculature is reported in fewer studies, especially the internal iliac artery branching pattern. Branches of the internal iliac artery are more critical when considering procedures such as iliac bone grafting, surgical approach to fix pelvic fractures or iatrogenic vascular haemorrhages in the pelvis. The present case shows the variation in the right ileal system, i.e. the accessory Iliolumbar artery (ILA), in addition to the principal ILA on the right side, which supplies the iliac and lumbar region.
