Ab Cavity 4 Flashcards
Blood supply & drain to kidneys
renal artery segmental arteries interlobar arteries arcuate arteries renal vein
kidney innervation
sympathetic T10-L1
parasympathetic vagus, S2-S4
adrenal gland cortex
produce corticosteroids and androgens
adrenal gland medulla
produce norepi and epi
adrenal gland blood supply
- superior suprarenal artery
- middle suprarenal artery
- inferior suprarenal artery
adrenal gland medulla innervation
presynaptic sympathetics penetrate directly to medulla and synapse on chromaffin cells
adrenal gland cortex
autonomic fibers associated with blood cells controlling vasodilation and vasoconstriction
blood supply to diaphragm
- superior phrenic artery
- inferior phrenic artery
psoas major
O: transverse processes of lumbar vertebrae; sides of vertebral bodies of T12-S1
I: lesser trochanter of femur
N: Lumbar plexus via anterior branches of nerves L2-L4
A: Acting inferiorly – flexes thigh; acting superiorly – flexes vertebral column laterally to balance trunk; when sitting acts inferiorly to flex trunk
iliacus
O: superior two thirds of iliac fossa, ala of sacrum and anterior sacro-iliac ligaments
I: lesser trochanter of femur and shaft inferior to it.
N: femoral nerve (L2-L4)
A: flexes thigh and stabilizes hip joint; acts with psoas major
quadratus lumborum
O: medial half of inferior border of 12th rib and tips of lumbar transverse processes
I: iliolumbar ligament and internal lip of iliac crest
N: anterior branches of T12 and L1-L4 nerves
A: extends and laterally flexes vertebral column. Fixes 12th rib during inspiration.
subcostal nerves
from: ventral rami of T12
Innervates: external oblique muscle and skin of the anterolateral abdominal wall
lumbar spinal nerves
from: L1-L5
Innervates: (posterior rami) deep back muscles, skin of the back; (anterior rami) skin and muscles of the most inferior trunk and lower limb.
lumbar plexus
L1-L4
ilioinguinal n
iliohypogastric n
from: L1
Innervates: Abdominal muscles and the skin of the inguinal and pubic regions
genitofemoral n
from: L1-L2 (divides into genital and femoral branches)
Innervates: Skin below the inguinal ligament
