    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obturator_nerve

    Here it enters the thigh, through the obturator canal, and divides into an anterior and a posterior branch, which are separated at first by some of the fibers of the obturator externus, and lower down by the adductor brevis. [2] An accessory obturator nerve may be present in approximately 8% to 29% of the general population. [3]

    It arises from the margin of bone immediately around the medial side of the obturator membrane and surrounding bone, viz., from the inferior pubic ramus, and the ramus of the ischium; it also arises from the medial two-thirds of the outer surface of the obturator membrane, and from the tendinous arch which completes the canal for the passage of the obturator vessels and nerves.

    Brodmann area 6 is a cytoarchitecturally defined portion of the frontal lobe of the guenon.Brodmann-1909 regarded it as topographically and cytoarchitecturally homologous to the human agranular frontal area 6 and noted that, in the monkey, area 4 is larger than area 6, whereas, in the human, area 6 is larger than area 4.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_to_obturator_internus

    The nerve to obturator internus (also known as the obturator internus nerve [citation needed]) is a mixed (sensory and motor) [1] nerve providing motor innervation to the obturator internus muscle and gemellus superior muscle, [2] [1] and sensory innervation to the hip joint. [1] It is a branch of the sacral plexus. It is one of the group of ...

  7. Cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortico-basal_ganglia-th...

    A motor circuit originating in the supplementary motor area, motor cortex, and somatosensory cortex, which in turn projects to the putamen, which projects to the ventrolateral GPi and caudolateral SNr, before returning to the cortex via the ventralis lateralis pars oralis and ventralis lateralis pars medialis.

  8. Obturator fascia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obturator_fascia

    The internal pudendal vessels and pudendal nerve cross the pelvic surface of the internal obturator and are enclosed in a special canal—Alcock's canal—formed by the obturator fascia. The iliococcygeus portion of the levator ani attaches to the lateral walls of the pelvis via the obturator fascia through the tendinous arch of the obturator ...

    Disposable trocars Laparoscopic instruments for insertion through trocars. A trocar (or trochar) is a medical or veterinary device used in minimally invasive surgery.Trocars are typically made up of an awl (which may be metal or plastic with a pointed or tapered tip), a cannula (essentially a rigid hollow tube) and often a seal.
