Some possible mnemonics for the branches of the abdominal aorta are:

  1. “I Saw Two Ladies Picking Apples”: - Inferior phrenic arteries - Superior mesenteric artery - Two renal arteries - Lumbar arteries - Middle sacral artery - Inferior mesenteric artery

  2. “Celiac, SMA, and IMA, LRA and MS, and ISA”: - Celiac trunk - Superior mesenteric artery - Inferior mesenteric artery - Left and right renal arteries - Middle sacral artery - Internal iliac artery

  3. “Can Some Men Really Love Intense Sex?”: - Celiac trunk - Superior mesenteric artery - Middle suprarenal arteries - Renal arteries - Lumbar arteries - Inferior mesenteric artery - Superior hypogastric plexus

  4. “Some Anatomists Like Really Good Illustrations”: - Superior phrenic arteries - Adrenal (suprarenal) arteries - Renal arteries - Gonadal (testicular or ovarian) arteries - Lumbar arteries - Inferior mesenteric artery

Note: Mnemonics are personal and subjective, so you can create your own based on what works best for you. The key is to associate the first letter of each branch with a word or phrase that is easy to remember and meaningful to you.
