25
explain how origin/insertion does not matter to external obliques
depending on what is fixed, you can laterally flex your pelvis to your ribs or you can bring the ribs to the pelvis
26
what is the origin of the internal oblique
thoracolumbar fascia, illiac crest, anterior superior illiac spine
27
what is the insertion of the internal oblique
inferior border of ribs 10-12, xiphoid, linea alba, pelvis (pubic tubercle and illiac crest)
28
what is the fiber orientation for the internal oblique
variable, the superior half is at right angles to the external oblique
29
what are the additional features of the internal oblique (besides flexion and compression)
ilsilatearl trtunk flexion, and ipsilateral trtunk roattiton)
30
is the internal oblique responsible for the ipsilateral or contralateral trunk rotation
ipsilateral
31
what is the origin of the trtansversus abdominus
thoracolumbar fascia, illiac crest, inner cartilage of T6-T12
32
what is the insertion of the transversus abdominus
linea alba, pubic crest
33
hat is the fiber orientation of the transversus abdomis
transverse
34
what are the additional functions of the transverse abdominus
none but very important for compressing abdominal contentts (defaction, mictruttion)
35
what is the origin of thee rectus abdom
ribs 5-7 and xiphoid
36
what is the insertion of the rectus abdominus
pubic crest and symphisis
37
what is the fiber orientation of the rectus abdom
superior to inferior (verticle)
38
how many tendinous intersections are there in the rectus abdom
3 (sometimes 4)
39
what is the function of the rectus abdom
compression of abdominal contents and trunk flexion
40
explain how O/I doesnt matter in rectus abdom
if you keeo your pelvis fixed, you can flex you ribs to them if you keep ribs fixed, you can bring your pelvis in closeer
41
describee the relationship of the rectus sheath to the recttus abdom superior to thee arcuate line
there is apeunorosis on eeither side of the rectus muscle
42
describee the relationship of the rectus sheath to the recttus abdom inferior to thee arcuate line
all the apenourosis movee anteriorly in front of the resctus =no more aponeurosis againnst the viscera (area of weeakness)
43
what happens to the apeunorosis below the arcuate line
theree is no more aponeurosis against the viscrea maening its an area of weaekness
44
whatt is the consequence of having no apeunorosis against the viscera
it is a potential area for weakness (subject to hernias)
45
what is the linea semilunaris
the convergence of the oblique/transversus aponeuroses on rectus abdominus
46
what creates the six pack
tendinous intersections
47
what general section innervatese the abdominal wall
anterior rami (T7-L1)
48
ADD SLIDES ON THE INNNERVATIONNN!!
49
what does the internal thoracic split into
superior epigasrtic musculophrenic
50
what two vessels form together to make an anastomosis in he abdominal wall
the superior and inferior epigastric
51
the inferior epigastric branches off fof what artery
extternal illiac
52
true or false: the inf epigastic artery does not obey the arcuate lig
false, it does When it reaches the arcuate line, it must be tucked underneath it
53
what are the muscles of the posterior abdominal wall
diaphragm psoas minor and major illiacus (illiopsoas) quadratus lumborum transversus abdominos
54
what two muscles make up the iliopsoas
iliacus psoas major
55
where does the ilipsoas major insert
femur (lesser troc) (crosses the hip joint)
56
since the iliopsoas crosses the hip where is itst main funciton
with thee limb
57
true or false: the primary fucntion of psoas major and illiacus is at the upper limb
false, lower
58
what is the orogin of psoas minor
VB of T12-L1
59
what is the insertion of the psoas minor
pubic bone
60
true or false: the psoas minor does not cross the hip jt
true
61
what is the origin of the psoas major
VB of T12-L5
62
what is thee insertion of the illiacus and psoas major
at the lesser troc.
63
what is the primary function of psoas minor, major, illiacus (illipsoas)
at the lower limb but also assists in lumbar flexion)
64
what is the secondary function of the illiacus and psoas minor
lumbar flexion
65
what is the origin of the quadratus lumborum
rib 12 and TP of lumbar vert
66
what is the insertion of the quadratus lumborum
illiac crest
67
what is the bilaterial function of quad lumborum
extension of the lumbar spine
68
whatt is the unilateral function of the quad lumb
lateeral flexion(ipsi)
69
what is the innervation of the quad lumnb
T12-L4
70
what is the innervation of the Illiacus and psoas
L1-L4
71
what is the level of the diapragm
rib 5
72
what are the 3 hiatuses of the diapraghm
caval hiatus esophageal aortic
73
place the 3 diaphragm hiatuses from sup to inf
caval esophageal aortic
74
what passes thru tthe caval hiatus
inferior vena cava
75
what passes through the esophageal hiatus
esophagus
76
what passes through the aortic hiatus
aortic
77
which hiatus is closest to the spine
tthe aortic hiatus
78
what level is the caval hiatus
T8
79
what level is the esophagus hiatus
T10
80
what level is the aortic hiatus
T12
81
what is the lateral arcuate ligaments formed from
meeting of quad lumb with diapgrahm
82
what is the medial artcuatte lig formed by
the meeting of he pssoas with the diapgram
83
where does the median artcuate lig surround
the aortic hiatus
84
where does the crus surround and what does it form
goes around the aortic hiatus to form the median the arttcuate lig
