Fluid buildup within the abdominal wall, like blood, won’t flow out into the leg, but it CAN go into the superficial perineal pouch. What connection blocks flow into the thigh?
A. Connection of Scarpa’s fascia with colle’s fascia
B. Connection of Scarpa’s with camper’s fascia
C. Connection of Scarpa’s fascia with Tensor fascia lata
C. Connection of Scarpa’s fascia with Tensor fascia lata
NOTE: Scarpa’s fascia being continuous with Colle’ fascia allows the fluid to flow into the superficial perineal space
- Colle’s fascia is deep to scarpa’s fascia
Which of the following is the correct order of the following structures from most external to most internal?
A. Skin > Camper’s fascia > aponeurosis > Scarpa’s fascia
B. Skin > Scarpa’s fascia > Camper’s fascia > Aponeurosis
C. Skin > Camper’s fascia > Scarpa’s Fascia > Aponeurosis
D. Camper’s fascia > Scarpa’s fascia > aponeurosis > skin
C. Skin > Camper’s fascia > Scarpa’s Fascia > Aponeurosis
CSA: Camper’s Scarf down Apples
Which of the following muscles insertion forms the inguinal ligament attached to the ASIS and pubic tubercle?
A. External Oblique
B. Internal Oblique
C. Transversus Abdominus
D. Rectus Abdominus
External Oblique
Which of the following muscles sends fibers that follow the spermatic cord to make the Cremasteric Muscle?
A. External Oblique
B. Internal Oblique
C. Transversus Abdominus
D. Rectus Abdominus
Internal Oblique
What is the innervation of Transverse Abdominous and Internal Oblique muscle?
What is the innervation of the External Oblique M and REctus Abdominus M.?
T7-L1
T7-T12
What two muscles of the Anterior Abdominal wall come together to form the Conjoint Tendon also known as Inguinal Falx?
A. External Oblique and Transversus Abdominus
B. Internal oblique and External oblique
C. Internal Oblique and Transversus Abdominus
D. All of the above combine to form the tendon
Internal Oblique and Transversus Abdominus
- Which of the following correctly describes the arcuate line?
- Where anterior abdominal muscles’ aponeuroses become anterior to rectus abdominus M 1/4ths of the way down
- Where anterior abdominal muscles’ aponeuroses become posterior to the rectus abdominus 1/4ths of the way down
- The lateral border of the rectus abdominus
- None of the above
A. Where anterior abdominal muscles’ aponeuroses become anterior to rectus abdominus M 1/4ths of the way down
NOTE: external oblique aponeurosis was always anterior to rectus abdominus M., it is at the arcuate line that the IO and TA also follow suit
Below the arcuate line the rectus abdominus is in contact with Transversalis fascia
Which of the following nerves is a continuation of Intercostal Ns. and runs between Transversus abdominus and Internal Oblique?
A. Sub costal N. (T12)
B. Thoracoabdominal N (T7-T11)
C. Iliohypogastric N. (L1)
D. Ilioinguinal N. (L1)
B. Thoracoabdominal N (T7-T11)
What nerve has motor component as well as a sensory component that works superior to iliac crest?
A. Subcostal N. (T12)
B. Thoracoabdominal N (T7-T11)
C. Iliohypogastric N. (L1)
D. Ilioinguinal N. (L1)
Subcostal N. (T12)
What nerve sends motor to IO and TA, and sensory to upper inguinal and hypogastric region?
A. Subcostal N. (T12)
B. Thoracoabdominal N (T7-T11)
C. Iliohypogastric N. (L1)
D. Ilioinguinal N. (L1)
Iliohypogastric N. (L1)

A. Subcostal N. (T12)
B. Thoracoabdominal N (T7-T11)
C. Iliohypogastric N. (L1)
