Exam 4 Flashcards
1
Q
Anterior Abdominal Wall
A
- 3 layers of muscle
- 3 layers of abdominal fascia
- 1 muscle between layers
2
Q
Anterior Lateral Muscles
A
- external oblique
- internal oblique
- transverse abdominis
- upper 3 all insert into abdominal fascia
- rectus abdominis: between layers of abdominal fascia
3
Q
Layers of Abdominal Fascia
A
- aponeurosis of: external and internal oblique, transverse abdominis
- join centrally between 2 rectus abdominis muscles to form linea alba (where they crisscross)
- three layers of abdominal fascia
- centrally joined to form linea alba
- arcuate line: approximately 1/2 way between umbilicus and pubic bone
4
Q
Above Arcuate Line
A
- external oblique aponeurosis is anterior to rectus abdominis
- internal oblique aponeurosis split with half anterior to rectus abdominis and half behind
- transverse abdominis aponeurosis is behind rectus abdominis
5
Q
Below Arcuate Line
A
-all layers of abdominal fascia go anterior to rectus abdomins muscle
6
Q
Inguinal Canal
A
- parallel and superior to inguinal ligament
- contains spermatic cord in males and round ligament in females
- cremaster muscle, testicular artery and vein, ilioinguinal nerve, fascia through inguinal ring into scrotum, and genito femoral nerve
- round ligament into labia majora
7
Q
What goes through inguinal canal?
A
-spermatic cord, testicular artery and vein, Ilioinguinal nerve, cremaster muscle, genitofemoral nerve go through canal
8
Q
Cremaster Muscle
A
- males: from internal oblique, through inguinal canal to testis and spermatic cord
- raise or lower testis for temperature control (sperm production) and during sexual arousal
- females: remnant may be found with round ligament into labia majora
9
Q
Pelvic Floor Muscles
A
- levator ani group
- puborectalis: form a sling from pubic bone, around rectum to pubic bone
- iliococcygeus: ischium to coccyx
- pubococcygeus: pubic bone to coccyx
10
Q
Nerves of Anterior Abdominal Wall
A
- ilioinguinal: L1, skin of scrotum/labia majora, adjacent medial thigh
- genitofemoral: skin over femoral triangle and scrotum/labia major, cremaster muscle
11
Q
Liver
A
- on right just below diaphragm
- detoxification of metabolites
- protein synthesis
- digestion biochemical
- gall bladder: inferior to liver, bile storage, breaks down fats
12
Q
Stomach
A
- esophagus: leads into
- smooth muscle
- sphincter at top and bottom
- exit into small intestine
13
Q

- duodenum
- jejunum
- ileum
14
