Fascia holds sutures well is?

Back 2

Scarpa's

Front 3

Abdominal reflex tests what nerves segments for upper and lower quadrants?

Back 3

Upper quadrants test T7-T9 and lower quadrants test T10-T12.

Front 4

Planter reflex tests what nerve segments?

Back 4

testing L5-S1

Front 5

Anal reflex reflex tests what nerve segments?

Back 5

testing S2-S4 (makes it pucker or wink)

Front 6

Median Surgical Incisions

Back 6

avoids muscle, major vessels and nerves and involves the linea alba

Front 7

Paramedian Surgical Incisions?

Back 7

is made in the sagittal plane and involves the rectus sheath

Front 8

Transverse Lanz Surgical Incisions endanger what nerves and predispose patient to what?

Back 8

iliohypogastric and ilioinguinal nerves, and predispose inguinal herniation later in patients

Front 9

Pfannenstiel or suprapubic Surgical Incisions are used for what?

Back 9

is a curved surgical incision that may be used for a caesarian section or urinary bladder surgery. It is a transverse incision through the external sheath of the recti muscles, just above the pubes. It follows natural folds of the skin and curves over the mons pubis in such a way that the pubic hairs cover the incision after surgery.

Front 10

What canal does the ilioinguinal nerve travel within?

Back 10

inguinal canal

Front 11

What type of hernia leaves the abdominal cavity medial to the inferior epigastric artery?

Back 11

Direct Inguinal Hernia. It protrudes through an area of weakness in the posterior wall of the inguinal canal. The hernial sac is formed by the transversalis fascia. It occurs outside the processes vaginalis and is usually obliterated, parallel to the spermatic cord. Thus, it is outside one or two of the fascial coverings of the cord. It will not traverse the entire canal and protrudes through the wall of the inguinal canal. It emerges from or about the conjoint tendon to reach the superficial inguinal ring. Thus, it gains an outer covering of external spermatic fascia, inside or parallel to that of the cord. In males, it usually does not enter the scrotum.

Front 12

Importance of Intercristal line?

Back 12

Spinal Tap level. L4. Just below Transumbilical plane of the quadrants that is located @ L3/L4

Front 13

linea semilunaris (semilunar) lines are clinically important becasue why?

Back 13

Usually incisions are not made along the semilunar lines because doing so would interrupt the multiple nerves and vessels that supply the rectus muscle. (Verticle lines and medial to midclavicular lines)

Front 14

How many regions and planes are there in the abdominal wall?

Back 14

9 regions and 5 planes

Front 15

What organs does the transpyloric plane or line cross?

Back 15

left kidney hila, right kidney superior border, neck of pancreas, duodenojunjual junction. @ L1 vertebra.

Front 16

Interspinous plane crosses what two structures?

Back 16

From Left ASIS to Right ASIS

Front 17

Intertubercular or tanstubercular plane connect what?

Back 17

Illac crests at L5/S1.

Front 18

arises from the anterior rami of L1-L3 and part of L4 (communicates with T12), and is embedded within the psoas major muscle and has major branches and segmental derivations.

Back 18

lumbar plexus

Front 19

(T7-11) are a continuation of the lower intercostal nerves, which courses between the 2nd and 3rd layers of the abdominal muscles (IO & TA).

Back 19

thoracoabdominals nerves

Front 20

arises from the ventral ramus of the 12th thoracic nerve and runs along the inferior border of the 12th rib.

Back 20

subcostal nerve

Front 21

arises from the ventral ramus of L1 and pierces the transverse abdominal muscle and branches (these pierce the external oblique aponeurosis).

Back 21

iliohypogastric nerve

Front 22

arises from the ventral ramus of L1 and passes between the 2nd and 3rd layers of the abdominal muscles and through the inguinal canal and lateral to the spermatic cord or round ligament of the uterus.

Back 22

ilioinguinal nerve

Front 23

arises via L1-L2 spinal nerves and has two major, named branches: 1) femoral branch (supplies femoral triangle of thigh) and 2) genital branch (supplies anterolateral surface of scrotum or labia majora).

Back 23

genitofemoral nerve

Front 24

What are the most common of all abdominal hernias and occur lateral to the inferior epigastric artery?

Back 24

Indirect Inguinal Hernia. Such a hernia enters the deep inguinal ring or the canal of Nuck in females. It is also termed a congenital inguinal hernia which has a hernial sac formed by a persistent processus vaginalis. In males, it is a type of hernia that usually traverses the entire canal, and commonly enters the scotum.

Front 25

The two medial fossae lie posterior to Hesselbach’s area, which is a potential site for?

Back 25

A direct hernia.

Front 26

The lateral fossae are the locations where the exit for what type of inguinal hernia may occur.
