Abdominal wall 1 Flashcards
Inguinal canal extends from
deep lingual ring to
superficial Inguinal ring
Layers of the anterolateral abdominal wall
skin superficial fascia external oblique muscle internal oblique muscle transverse oblique muscle transversus fascia exztraperitoneal fat peritoneum
Anteroabdominal wall muscles
external oblique (down, medial) internal oblique (up, medial) transversus abdominus (horizontal)
rectus abdominus (veritcal)
Rectus sheath insertion
linea alba
- ziphoid process to pubic bone
Rectus abdominal sections
- location
Tendinous Intersection
- ziphoid process
- umbilicus
- 1/2 way between
Spermatic Chord rises from
opening of superficial inguinal ring
Apeneuroses of abdominal wall muscles
rectus sheath
Rectus Sheath and Rectus Abdominus
sheath surrounds like a pillow case
Line below the umbillicus
arcuate line
- fascia of internal oblique bifurcates and surrounds rectus abdominus above line (meets with both external and internal)
- below all goes above
Deep and Superficial inguinal ring locations
Deep: 1/2 between pubic bone and ant. sup. iliac spine
Sup: approx 4cm medial near pubic bone
Inguinal canal travel direction
why?
angle
- abs contracting closes it
Deep inguinal ring
- looks like?
a dent in the anterolateral abdominal wall
Contained within the spermatic chord
Ductus Deferens (vas deferens) (from L2)
Testicular Artery
Pampiniform Venous Plexus
Vestige of Processus Vaginalis
