Tip

Both ovarian vessels and uterine vessels are in the ligaments that connect with lateral pelvic wall, because ovarian artery originates directly from the abdominal aorta, usually just below the level of the renal arteries, and the uterine artery arises as a branch of the anterior division of the internal iliac artery.
