The term gonadal artery is a generic term for a paired artery, with one arising from the abdominal aorta for each gonad. Specifically, it can refer to:
left gastric: esophageal branches
splenic: pancreatic branches (greater, dorsal) – short gastric – left gastro-omental
common hepatic: proper hepatic (cystic), right gastric, gastroduodenal (right gastro-omental, superior pancreaticoduodenal, supraduodenal)
inferior pancreaticoduodenal – intestinal (jejunal, ileal, arcades, vasa recta) – ileocolic (colic, anterior cecal, posterior cecal, ileal branch, appendicular) – right colic – middle colic
left colic – sigmoid – superior rectal – marginal
visceral: middle suprarenal – renal (inferior suprarenal, ureteral) – gonadal (testicular ♂ / ovarian ♀) parietal: inferior phrenic (superior suprarenal) – lumbar – median sacral terminal: common iliac (IIA, EIA)
umbilical (superior vesical, to ductus deferens) – middle rectal – obturator (anterior branch, posterior branch) – inferior gluteal (accompanying of ischiadic nerve, crucial anastomosis)
uterine ♀ (helicine, vaginal of uterine, ovarian of uterine, tubal of uterine) – vaginal ♀ / inferior vesical ♂
internal pudendal: inferior rectal – perineal (urethral) – posterior scrotal ♂ / labial ♀ – bulb of penis ♂ / vestibule ♀ – deep artery of the penis ♂ (helicine) / clitoris ♀ – dorsal of the penis ♂ / clitoris ♀
iliolumbar (lumbar, iliac) – lateral sacral – superior gluteal
inferior epigastric (cremasteric, round ligament) – deep circumflex iliac – femoral
