2 Para-vesical space boundaries:

A

retroperitoneal space anterior and superior to the pararectal space. It is enclosed medially by the bladder, laterally by the pelvic walls, and inferiorly by the uterine artery. The pararectal and paravesical space can mutually communicate with each other, and also with the prevesical space. Dissection of these spaces ensures easy and complete removal of the uterus and its attachments during radical hysterectomy.
Medial: obliterated medial umbilical a.(superior Vesical a)

Q

uterine artery course

A

is a branch of the internal iliac artery, runs in the base of the broad ligament, and about 2 cm lateral to the cervix it passes anterior and superior to the ureter, reaching the uterus at the level of the internal os. The artery then ascends in a tortuous manner, running up the lateral side of the body of the uterus before turning laterally and inferiorly to the uterine tube, where it terminates by anastomosing with the terminal branches of the ovarian artery.

Q

Lymphatic drainage of uterus

A

• The fundus drains along the ovarian vessels to the para-aortic nodes, although some drain with lymphatics which pass via the round ligament to the inguinal nodes. Metastases from the fundus of the uterus may, therefore, occur in the inguinal nodes.
• The body drains via lymphatics in the broad ligament to the iliac lymph nodes.
• The cervix drains laterally via the broad ligament to the external iliac nodes, posteriorly in the uterosacral fold to the sacral lymph nodes, and posterolaterally along the uterine vessels to the internal iliac nodes.

Q

In repeat caesarean section, there are often adhesions in the plane between the anterior rectus sheath and the rectus muscle and these may require surgical division in order to free the rectus sheath sufficiently from the muscle to enable it to be lifted superiorly and thus create sufficient space for subsequent delivery of the fetal head. Awareness of the vessels in this plane and use of cautery or ligation, if the vessels are divided, is crucial to avoid the risk of rectus sheath haematoma later on.

A

The ureters lie close to lateral fornices of the vagina at the level of the uterine cervix and pass directly under the uterine arteries at this point.

Q

It is important to be mindful of the altered anatomy of the lower segment of the uterus during advanced stages of labour, as this is often the time in which caesarean section may be performed. In advanced labour, the cervix may be fully or almost fully dilated and so the lower segment is drawn up cephalad. If one is not vigilant, incision of the uterine cavity is performed at a level that in advanced labour may in fact be cervix and not lower uterine segment.

A

In these circumstances, the incision should be placed a little higher than it would be at early labour, in order to avoid incision of the cervix.

Q

The uterus has several significant anatomical relationships that are of importance to the surgeon:

A

● The anterior wall of the uterus lies directly posterior to the superior part of the bladder, with the vesico-uterine fold of peritoneum coursing over the bladder and onto the anterior body of the uterus. The supravaginal cervix is also directly posterior to the bladder. ● The pouch of Douglas lies posterior to the uterus. This cavity has been used as a point of access to the pelvic intraperitoneal cavity via the posterior vaginal fornix. ● A particularly important relation is that of the ureters to the supravaginal cervix. Lying 1.5 cm lateral to the supravaginal cervix and passing directly beneath the uterine arteries, the ureters can be injured when the uterine arteries are ligated during a hysterectomy. ● Lateral to the uterus is the peritoneal broad ligament. A double, peritoneal layer forms the broad ligaments, running from the sides of the uterus out to the lateral walls and floor of the pelvis. In the upper free border of each side of the broad ligament lie the fallopian tubes. The lateral border of the broad ligament is drawn superiorly over the ovarian vessels as the suspensory ligament of the ovary. ● The ovaries lie within a small mesentery called the mesovarium, which is suspended from the posterior part of the broad ligament. ● The round ligaments run in the anterior layer of the broad ligament. They pass form the lateral border of the uterus to the deep inguinal ring on each side

A

Origin: The internal oblique muscle arises from the thoracolumbar fascia, anterior two-thirds of the iliac crest, and the connective tissue deep to the lateral third of inguinal ligament.

110
Q

Internal Oblique Muscle Insertion

A

Insertion: This muscle courses at a right angle to the fibres of the external oblique muscle and gets inserted on the inferior borders of 10th–12th ribs, linea alba and pecten pubis via the conjoint tendon. The aponeurosis of the internal oblique splits at the lateral edge of the rectus muscle into an anterior and posterior lamina to envelope the rectus abdominis muscle. The anterior layer blends with the aponeurosis of the external oblique. Posterior to the rectus muscle, this aponeurosis blends with the aponeurosis of the transversus abdominis to form a portion of the posterior rectus sheath. In most areas, the fibres of this muscle are perpendicular to the fibres of the external oblique, but in the lower abdomen, their fibres arch somewhat more caudally, and run in a direction similar to those of the external oblique.

111

A

A small, vestigial, triangular-shaped muscle, the pyramidalis, arises from the pubic symphysis.
