1-skin of the abdominal wall
The most important characters of skin of
abdomen are :-
Longitudinal paramedial m
Origin:- lower end 2 heads
Med- head → symphysis pubis
Lat. head → pubic crest
Insertion:- upper end Front of 5,6,7th costal cartilage & Xiphoid
Process
N supply lower six thoracic n (T7-T12)
Action :
-Compresses abdominal contents
-Flex vertebral column
-Accessory muscle of expiration
*tendenous intersection s 3,4 transvers bands
(xiphoid P, umbilicus, midway bet. Xiphoid &umb, below umb.)
*Linea semilunaris –shallow curved groove along lateral. border
of muscle
The rectus abdominis is enclosed between the
aponeuroses of the external oblique, internal
oblique, and transversus abdominis, which form
the rectus sheath
Pyramidalis m
Deep veins
-Superior epigastrtic vv ..→ internal thoracic vv
-Inferior epigatric and deep circumflex iliac vein →
external iliac vv
-Posterior intercostal vv → azygos vv
