    It acts with the external oblique muscle of the opposite side to achieve this torsional movement of the trunk. For example, the right internal oblique and the left external oblique contract as the torso flexes and rotates to bring the left shoulder towards the right hip. For this reason, the internal obliques are referred to as "same-side ...

  3. Transverse abdominis plane block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_abdominis_plane...

    It is performed by injecting local anesthetic (commonly Ropivacaine or Bupivacaine) under ultrasound guidance between the plane of the internal oblique muscles and the transversalis muscles. The intercostal, subcostal, hypogastric, and ilioinguinal nerves are blocked. Duration of the block depends on the volume and concentration of the local ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transversalis_fascia

    The transversalis fascia (or transverse fascia) is the fascial lining of the anterolateral abdominal wall [1] [2] situated between the inner surface of the transverse abdominal muscle, and the preperitoneal fascia. [3] [2] It is directly continuous with the iliac fascia, [2] the internal spermatic fascia, [citation needed] and pelvic fascia. [2]
