In this work, morphology of the inferior mesenteric artery and its branches is studied as well as its distribution form, thickeness, and quantity of divisions and arches in man. For this, a sample of 15 anatomic preparations obtained for the microdisecction method, was used. Messurements of different elements were performed , and afterwards these statistical data were processed. The system of the level of developmen. It has and old visceral vessel which ends in the mesocholic border of the large bowel through direct vessels. Ending branches and simple arches are the elements which make more complex the intestinal vascular tree of mammals, but they reach their highest development in its superior representant:man Secondary branches in the emergency sites or dicotomization present similar thickeness, as well as disect vessels that penetrate into the intestinal wall which guarantees a uniform irrigation to the organ.
