pelvic cavity (below).
• Abdominal cavity
extends superiorly up
to 4th intercostal space.

e Venous & Lymphatic drainage from abdominal wall
je
Ob WATER-SHED
Venous blood flow in 3 directions:
• Above the umbilicus: Blood drained
to superior vena cava.
• Below the umbilicus pass to inferior
vena cava. (water-shed).
• Paraumbilical vein runs along the
ligamentum teres & passes to portal
vein.
So around umbilicus there is portocaval
anastomosis.
Lymph vessels pass to axillary & inguinal
lymph nodes (water-shed).

Ob
Obstruction of either superior vena cava or inferior vena cava or portal
vein causes dilatation of superficial veins around umbilicus for collateral
circulation. (what will be direction of blood-flow?)
Portal obstruction causes dilation of cutaneous veins radiating from
umbilicus (caput medusa).

O Rectus abdominis enclosed
• Strong fibrous compartment,
by rectus sheath
Aponeuroses Formed by aponeuroses.
• Two walls: Anterior wall &
posterior wall.
• Anterior wall is complete &
Posterior wall is incomplete.
• Arcuate line: lower free border of
posterior wall, curved upward.
• Arcuate line
• Rectus abdominis muscle
& pyramidalis muscle
• Epigastric vessels
• Thoracoabdominal nerves
During surgical incision through rectus
sheath the rectus abdominis muscle is
retracted laterally to prevent the injury
of the nerves
Linea alba extends from xiphoid process to pubic symphysis & lest vascular.

• Length: 4 cm long
Superficial
• In infants: canal is shorter, inguinal ring
less oblique & both the
rings almost overlaps.
• So inguinal hernia is
common in infant.
• In male the canal is wider
than in female, & thus
inguinal hernia is more in
male than in female.

veMechanism of inguinal canal during increased
cti
je
Ob
intra-abdominal pressure
• Deep & superficial rings do not overlap in adult. Consequently,
increased intra-abdominal pressure presses the posterior wall of
the canal against the anterior wall.
• Contraction of external oblique approximates the anterior wall
toward the posterior wall. It also increases tension on medial &
lateral crura resisting the dilation of superficial ring.
• Contraction of the arched musculature of the roof of the canal
makes the roof descend, constricting the canal.
