The scarce seromuscular tunic of the vesical placental vessels often makes them go unnoticed during the pulling manoeuvres, since they collapse as veins.
If the bladder collapses, the placental image will add to the vesical and bone signals, making it more difficult to see the uterine-placental interface.
It is less frequent to visualise anomalous vascular tissue reaching neighbouring organs, mainly the vesical wall.
Studies to discover modifications that appear in the vesical neuroreceptors with aging have been inconclusive.
These anatomical changes predispose elderly women towards hypermobility in the vesical and urethral base, as well as resulting in an intrinsic urethral weakness.
The umbilical artery is found in the pelvis, and gives rise to the superior vesical arteries.
The vesical veins receive blood from the vesical venous plexus and are tributaries of the internal iliac veins.
Vesical tenesmus is a similar condition, experienced as a feeling of incomplete voiding despite the bladder being empty.
