The inferior hypogastric plexus gives rise to the prostatic plexus in males and the uterovaginal plexus in females [2]. The inferior hypogastric plexus is a paired structure, with each situated on the side of the rectum in the male, and at the sides of the rectum and vagina in the female. For this reason, injury to this structure is a known complication of pelvic surgeries and may cause urinary dysfunction and specifically urinary incontinence. Urodynamics will reveal a poorly compliant bladder, with bladder neck incompetence, and fixed external sphincter tone [3] . SourcesContributions to the plexus include:
At the points of junction of these nerves small ganglia are found. CourseFrom these plexuses numerous branches are distributed to the viscera of the pelvis. They accompany the branches of the internal iliac artery. It is the source for the middle rectal plexus, vesical plexus, prostatic plexus, and uterovaginal plexus.[4] Additional imagesSee also
