Abdomen, Pelvis, and Perineum anatomy Flashcards
Linea Semilunaris
a curved line defining the lateral border of the rectus abdominin
Layers of the anterior abdominal wall
- Skin
- Superficial fascia
- Camper (fatty)
- Scarpa (fibrous)
- External oblique
- Internal oblique
- Transversus abdominis
- Transversalis fascia
- Extraperitoneal
- Parietal peritoneal
Inguinal ligament extends
between the anterior superior iliac spine and pubic tubercle
Lacunar ligament forms
the medial border of a femoral hernia
Transversalis fascia forms
A continuous lining of the entire abdominalopelvic cavity
Major arterial blood supply to the anterior wall is derived from
- Superior epigastric branch of the internal thoracic artery
- Inferior epigastric and deep circumflex iliac branches of the external iliac artery
Deep inguinal ring located
Lateral to the inferior epigastric vessels and immediatly superior to the midpoint of the inguinal ligament
Content of the female inguinal canal
- Round ligament of the uterus
- Ilioinguinal nerve (L1)
Content of male inguinal canal
- Ilioinguinal nerve
- Spermatic corda
Spermatic cord contains
- Testicular artery
- Pampiniform venous plexus
- Vas deferens
- Autonamic Nerves
- Lymphatics
Lymphatics drainage of the testis
Drain into the lunber (aortic) nodes of the lumber region
What nerve intervates the cremasteric muscle
Genitofemoral N
Congenital indirect inguinal hernia is usually due to
Persistent process vaginalis
Hydrocele is fluid in
Tunica vaginalis
Direct herinas are found
medial to the inferior epigastric vessels
Indirect hernias are found
lateral to the inferior epigastric vessels
Indirect hernias follow
the route taken by the testis and are found within the spermatic cord
Which is the only hernia that pass through the deep ring
Indirect hernia
What are the borders of the Inguinal (Hasselbach’s) triangle
- Lateral: inferior epigastic vessels
- Medial: rectus abdominis muscle
- Inferior: Inguinal ligament
The primitive gut tube is formed by
Incorporation of the yolk sac into the embryo
Foregut artery
Celiac
Foregut PSNS
Vagus
Foregut SNS
Preganglionic: Thoracic splanchnic N T5-T9
Postganglionic: Celiac ganglion
Foregut referred pain
Epigastrium
Derivatives of the foregut
- Esophagus
- Stomach
- Duodenum (first and second)
- Liver
- Pancreas
- GB
Midgut artery
Superior Mesenteric
Midgut PSNS
Vagus
Midgut SNS
Preganglionic: Thoracic splanchnic nerves T9-T12
Postganglionic: Superior mesenteric ganglion
Midgut referred pain
Umbilical
Derivatives of the midgut
- Duodenum (second, third, and forth)
- Jejunum
- Ileum
- Cecum
- Appendix
- Ascending colon
- Transverse colon (proximal 2/3)
Hindgut artery
Inferior Mesenteric
Hindgut PSNS
Pelvic splanchnic nerve
Hindgut referred pain
Hypogastrium
Derivatives of hindgut
- Transverse colon (distal 1/3)
- Descending colong
- Sigmoid colon
- Rectum
- Anal canal (above pectinate line)
What develops from endodermal outgrowth of the foregut
- Lower respiratory tract
- Liver
- Pancrease
Where is the lesser sac formed
Posterior to the stomach and the lesser omentum
What is the only communication between the greater sac and lesser sac
Epiploic foramen of Winslow
Major intraperitoneal organs (suspended by a mesentery)
- Stomach
- Liver and GB
- Spleen
- Duodenum (1st part)
- Tail of pancreas
- Jejunum
- Ileum
- Appendix
- Transverse colon
- Sigmoid colon
Major Secondary Retroperitoneal organs (lost a mesentery during development)
- Duodenum (2nd and 3rd parts)
- Head, neck, and body of pancreas
- Ascending colon
- Descending colon
- Upper rectum
Major Primary Retroperitoneal organs (never had a mesentery)
- Kidenys
- Adrenal glands
- Ureters
- Aorta
- IVC
- Lower rectum
- Anal canal
