Skin
Langer lines – describe the orientation of dermal fibers
o in the abdomen, transversely arranged
o vertical skin incisions – more tension, w ider scars
o low transverse incisions (Pfannenstiel) – follow
Langer lines; superior cosmetic results
Subcutaneous layer
Camper’s fascia
o superficial
o predominantly fatty layer
Scarpa’s fascia
o deeper
o more membranous layer
These are not discrete layers but instead represent a
continuum of the subcutaneous tissue layer Innervation:
Intercostal nerves (T7-T11)
Rectus Sheath – fibrous aponeuroses of the external oblique, internal Subcostal nerve (T12)
oblique, and transversus abdominis muscles join in the midline Iliohypogastric nerve – skin over suprapubic area
Ilioinguinal nerves (L1) – skin of the low er abdominal w all,
Arcuate line
upper portion of the labia majora, medial portion of the thigh
Cephalad – aponeuroses invest the rectus abdmoninis bellies T10 dermatome – approximates the level of the umbilicus
above and below
Caudal – all aponeuroses lie anterior to the rectus abdominis Clinical Significance
muscle, and only the thin transversalis fascia and peritoneum Ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerves
lie beneath o can be entrapped during closure of low transverse
incisions, especially if incisions extend beyond the
lateral borders of the rectus muscle
o carry sensory information only, and injury leads to
loss of sensation w ithin the areas supplied
Blood Supply
Branches of fem oral artery – supply the skin and
subcutaneous layers of the anterior abdominal w all and mons
pubis
o Superficial epigastric artery
o Superficial circumflex iliac artery
o External pudendal artery
Branches of external iliac artery – supply the muscles and
fascia of the anterior abdominal w all
o Inferior deep epigastric vessels
o Deep circumflex iliac vessels kadiri ew w w
Vestibule
from embryonic urogenital membrane
almond-shaped
Boundaries:
o Lateral – Hart line
o Medial – external surface of hymen
o Anterior – frenulum
o Posterior – fourchette
6 openings:
o Urethra
o Vagina
o Ducts of the Bartholin glands (2)
o Ducts of the paraurethral glands/Skene glands (2)
Vestibular Glands
Bartholin’s glands
o greater vestibular glands
o 0.5 to 1 cm in diameter

EMBRYOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT
Anal Cushion
highly vascularized
aids in fecal continence
engorgement due to increased uterine size, excessive
straining and hard stools, can increase venous engorgement
w ithin these cushions to form hem orrhoids
Perineal Body
anchors the anorectum; also anchors the vagina
helps maintains urinary and fecal continence
maintains the orgasmic platform
prevents expansion of the urogenital hiatus
provides a physical barrier betw een the vagina and rectum
the structures that contribute to the perineal body are the ff:
o Median raphe of the levator ani
o Central tendon of the perineum
Cardinal Ligaments
transverse cervical or Mackendrodt ligament
thick base of the broad ligament that is continuous w ith the
connective tissue of the pelvic floor
Uterosacral Ligaments
from its attachment posterolaterally to the supravaginal
portion of the cervix and inserts into the fascia over the sacrum Lym phatics
form the lateral boundaries of the pouch of Douglas Cervix – terminate mainly in the hypogastric nodes, which are
situated near the bifurcation of the common iliac vessels.
Fallopian Tubes Body of the uterus – internal iliac nodes and periaortic lymph
also called oviducts nodes
vary in length from 8 to 14 cm.
lumen is lined by mucous membrane
