inguinal region
|
|
This region is important anatomically because there is an inherent weakness in the anterior abdominal wall in the inguinal area due to changes that occurred during development of the ?
|
gonads
|
|
Before the descent of the testes or ovaries from their initial position high on the posterior abdominal wall, a peritoneal outpouching—the ?—forms, protruding through the various layers of the anterior abdominal wall and acquires coverings from each
|
processus vaginalis
|
|
As a result, the PV is transformed into a tubular structure with multiple coverings from the layers
of the anterior abdominal wall. This forms the basic structure of the ? |
inguinal canal.
|
|
The final event in this development is the descent of the testes into the scrotum or the ovaries into the pelvic cavity. This entire process depends on the development of the ? which extends from the inferior border of the developing gonads to the labioscrotal swellings.
