A

the inguinal area

2
Q

75% of abdominal hernias happens in

A

inguinal area

3
Q

86% of inguinal hernia occur in

A

males, because of the passage of the spermatic cord through inguinal canal

4
Q

male gonads travel through what to get from the abdomen to the perinuem

A

the inguinal canal

5
Q

the ingiunal ligament and illopubic tract is the lowest portion of what

A

our external oblique

last portion of the external oblique aponeruosis

6
Q

lacunar ligament forms what

A

the medial boundary of the subinguinal space

7
Q

pectineal ligament of Cooper

A

most lateral of the fibers and it runs along pecten pubis

8
Q

the thickened inferior margin of the transversalis fascia that appears as a fibrous band and runs parellel to the inguinal ligament is the

A

iliopubic tract

9
Q

iliopubic tract can be viewed?

A

posteriorly

10
Q

the inguinal lig and iliopubic tract span an area of innate weakness in the groin area called

A

myopectineal orifice

11
Q

the myopectineal orifice is the sight of what

A

groin hernias

12
Q

femoral hernia is more common in

A

female ( due to size of pelvis

13
Q

the dragging process of gonads occurs where

A

inguinal canal ( formed for dragging)

14
Q

what lies parallel and superior to the inguinal ligament

A

the inguinal canal

15
Q

the round lig ( women) and spermatic cord ( males) is main occupant of

A

inguinal canal

16
Q

the inguinal canal also has

A

blood and lymphatic vessels

17
Q

gubernaculum (male)

A

a fibrous cord that connects the primordial testies to the anterolateral abdominal wall

18
Q

all blood vessels for testes and ovaries come from

A

the posterior side of lumbar area (dragging area)- they are not the structure of pelvis

19
Q

testes are in pelvis when

A

12th week

20
Q

testes are close to inguinal ring when

A

28th week ( 7 months)

21
Q

testies begin to pass through inguinal canal when

A

28th week

22
Q

how long does it take for testes to pass through inguinal canal

A

3 days

23
Q

as the testis, ductus deference and its vessels/nerves descend they are ensheathed in what

A

musculofascial extensions from the anteriorlateral abdomen wall

( making adult scrotum)

24
Q

the stalk of the process vaginalis normally degenerates but the distal part of it forms what

A

tunica vaginalis (serous sheath of the testis and epididymus)

25
Q

where the inguinal canal is developed in males the what is developed in women

A

the labium majorus

26
Q

ovaries cannot go where due to connection?

A

inguinal area

27
Q

the female gubernaculum is what

A

a fibrous cord that connects the ovary and primordial for uterus and forms the labium majorus

28
Q

ovary ligament is where

A

between oavry and uterus

29
Q

round ligament of the uterus is where

A

between uterus and labium majorus

30
Q

ovaries do not descend to the inguinal region why

A

because of the ovarian ligament

31
Q

what does go to the inguinal area in women connecting to the labium majora?

A

the round ligament

32
Q

the superficial inguinal rings in infants lie where

A

almost directly anterior to the deep inguinal rings

33
Q

the testes are outside of the body why

A

because the sperm cannot be produce inside of the body due to the temperature

34
Q

inguinal canals are narrower in who

A

women

35
Q

inguinal canals i children are what

A

shorter then they are in adults

36
Q

the deep inguinal ring

A

the internal entrance of the inguninal canal

37
Q

sueprfical inguinal ring

A

the exit by which the spermatic cord in males and round lig in women comes out of inguinal canal

38
Q

lateral crus attaches to where

A

pubic tubercal

39
Q

medial crus attaches where

A

the pubic crest

40
Q

medial and lateral crus do what

A

are the margins of the superfical ring

41
Q

the medial and lateral crus do what

A

keep the aponeruosis from splitting

42
Q

the inguinal canals have two what? and what else

A

two walls and a roof and floor ( like a tunnel)

Q

posterior wall of inguinal canal is formed by

A

transversalis fascia

44
Q

anterior wall of inguinal canal is mainly formed by?

A

external oblique

45
Q

roof of inguinal canal is formed by

A

transversalis fascia
aponeruosis of internal and transverse abdominis
medial crus of external oblique

46
Q

floor is mostly formed by

A

inguinal ligament

47
Q

the deep and superficial inguinal rings do not do what in adults

A

overlap, because they are oblique

48
Q

pressure on the inguinal canal will cause

A

it to collapse because it is oblique
