Bucks’s fascia
Tendinous median raphe between the 2 rectus abdominis
Linea alba
Is a curved line along the lateral border of the rectus abdominis
Linea Semilunaris
Crescent shaped line marking the inferior limit of the posterior layer of the rectus sheath just below the level of the iliac crest
Arcuate line (Linea Semicircularis)
Represents the medial traingular expansion of the inguinal ligament to the pectineal line of the pubis
Forms the medial morder of the femoral ring and the floor of the inguinal canal
Lacunar Ligament (Gimbernat’s ligament)
Strong fibrous band that extends laterally from the lacunar ligament along the pectineal line of the pubis
Cooper’s ligament
Folded lower border of the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle, extending between the anterior superior iliac spine and the pubic tubercle
Inguinal ligament (Poupart’s Ligament)
(Forms the floor of the inguinal canal)
Fascial partition that separates the muscular (lateral9 and vascular (medial) lacunae deep to the inguinal ligament
Iliopectineal Arcus or Ligament
- The muscular lacuna
- transmits the iliopsoas muscle
- THe vascular lacuna
- Transmits the femoral sheath and its contents, including the femoral vessels, a femoral branch of the genitofemoral nerve, and the femoral canal
Formed by the fibers derived from the medial portiol of the inguinal ligament and lacunar ligament and runs upward over the conjoint tendon to end at the linea alba
Reflected Inguinal Ligament
Formed by the aponeuoroses of the internal oblique and transverse msucles of the abdomen and is inserted into the pubic tubercle and crestw
Strengthens the posterior wall of the medial half of the inguinal canal
Falx Inguinalis (conjoint tendon)
Formed by the fusion of the aponeuroses of the external oblique, internal oblique, and transverse muscles of the abdomen
Rectrus sheath
