Current study describes possible alterations of the terminal branches of dogs ́ abdominal aorta to determine their origin and compare them with other species. Thirty specimens of dogs (race not defined), 20 females and 10 males, varying in age and size, were used. The corpses were retrieved from previous practical classes at the veterinary anatomy laboratory of the Universidade de Sorocaba(UNISO), Sorocaba, Brazil. The dogs ́ femoral artery was dissected and catheterized by 10% formaldehyde injection and submerged for at least 48 hours in formalin-fixed vats for fixation. All animals were submitted to abdominal cavity access through the abdominal and lateral abdominal wall and later removed from the abdominal viscera to visualize the abdominal aorta and its terminal branches. Most of the animals under analysis presented, right and left external iliac artery, right and left internal iliac artery and a median sacral arteryas terminal branches of the abdominal aorta, whereas 9 dissected specimens showed a common trunk with internal iliac artery and medial sacral artery. Results show that there are variations among mammals with regard to the origins of terminal branches of the abdominal aorta.(AU)
