The artery to the ductus deferens (deferential artery) is an artery in males that provides blood to the ductus deferens.[ citation needed]
The artery arises from the superior vesical artery (usually), [1] or from the inferior vesical artery. [2]
It accompanies the ductus deferens into the testis, where it anastomoses with the testicular artery; in this way it also supplies blood to the testis and epididymis. A small branch also supplies the ureter.[ citation needed]
