Шаблон:Infobox artery The artery of the round ligament of the uterus, also known as Sampson's artery,[1][2] is a branch of the inferior epigastric artery.[3] It runs under, and supplies, the round ligament of the uterus.[4] It constitutes an anastomosis of the uterine artery and ovarian artery.[5] It was originally named after John A. Sampson (1873–1946), an American gynecologist who studied endometriosis.[6]

Clinical significance

It is considered an insignificant artery that is dissected during hysterectomies. It can be the source of hemoperitoneum,[7] but only rarely does it pose a hemodynamic risk to the patient if severed and it is easily cauterized or sutured to prevent bleeding.Шаблон:Citation needed
