Erratum to “Variation of the Lateral Sacral Artery in relation to Sciatic Neuropathy”

Table 1

Origin of the lateral sacral artery.

Origin	Incidence^1
Anterior trunk of the internal iliac artery	1.0%
Dorsomedial aspect of the internal iliac artery	3.7%
Posterior trunk of the internal iliac artery	79.1%
Superior gluteal artery	16.8%
Inferior gluteal artery	5.4%
Internal pudendal artery	0.3%
Persistent sciatic artery	8.8%
Congenital absence	0.4%

The lateral sacral artery commonly arose from the posterior trunk of the internal iliac artery. Occasionally, it arose from different arteries. Due to coexistence of double and triple as well as quadruple lateral sacral artery, its incidence becomes more than 100%. It is a congenital absence in 0.4%. Observations based on 342 specimens (45 specimens have been excluded due to missing data).
