diaphgram
where would you locate the inguinal ligament
formed by the free border of the external oblique and it extends from the ASIS to the pubic tubercle
where is the superficial inguinal ring of the inguinal canal
superiorly and slightly lateral to pubic tubercle
where is the deep inguinal ring of the inguinal canal
superior to midpoint of inguinal ligament
what passes through the inguinal canal in males
spermatic cord
what passes through the inguinal canal in females
round ligament of uterus
what is the peritoneum
thin serous membrane which lines the abdominal cavity
name the two components of the peritoneum
parietal (lines abdominal cavity) and visceral (lines organs)
what level do inf. vena cava, oesophegus and aorta penetrate the diaphgram
T8 (vena cava 8 letters)
T10 (oesophegus 10 letters)
T12 (aorta t for 12)
Branches of the abdominal aorta (ant. and lateral)
T12 - lateral frenic arteries and anterior coeliac trunk
L1 - anterior Sup. mesenteric artery and lateral renal arteries
L2 - lateral gonad arteries
L3 - anterior inf. mesenteric artery
L4 - bifurcation of aorta
how is the inf. vena cava formed
union of right and left common illiac veins at L5
penetrates diaphragm at T8
terminates in the right atrium of heart
L4-T8
branches of celiac artery
left gastric
splenic
common hepatic
what does the celiac trunk supply
foregut
what does the superior mesenteric artery supply
midgut
what does the inferior mesenteric artery supply
hindgut
how does the gut carry out venous drainage
through the portal system- into liver then hepatic veins drain into inf. vena cava
what makes up the hepatic portal vein
splenic vein
what veins drain into the IVC directly
gonads and renal
what are the 6 nerves of the lumbar plexus
i, i get laid on fridays Iliohypogastric ilioinguinal genitofemoral lateral femoral cutaneous obturator femoral
