The linea semilunaris (also semilunar line or Spigelian line) is described by Adriaan van den Spiegel (°1578 †1625) described the Linea Semilunaris as the line forming and marking the transition from muscle to aponeurosis in the transversus abdominis muscle of the abdomen. It needs to be distinguished from the lateral border of the rectus ...
The arcuate line of rectus sheath (the arcuate line or the semicircular line of Douglas) is a line of demarcation [1] corresponding to the free inferior margin of the posterior layer of the rectus sheath [2] inferior to which only the anterior layer of the rectus sheath is present [3] and the rectus abdominis muscle is therefore in direct contact with the transversalis fascia. [1]
Below the arcuate line Below this level, the aponeuroses of all three muscles (including the transversus) pass in front of the rectus. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The posterior layer of the rectus sheath is thus absent and the rectus abdominis muscle is separated from the peritoneum only by the transversalis fascia . [ 2 ]
A Spigelian is the type of ventral hernia where aponeurotic fascia pushes through a hole in the junction of the linea semilunaris and the arcuate line, creating a bulge.It appears in the lower quadrant of the abdomen between an area of dense fibrous tissue and abdominal wall muscles causing a (Spigelian aponeurosis).
The rectus abdominis has many sources of arterial blood supply. Classification of the vascular anatomy of muscles: First, the inferior epigastric artery and vein (or veins) run superiorly on the posterior surface of the rectus abdominis, enter the rectus fascia at the arcuate line, and serve the lower part of

The aponeurosis of the abdominal external oblique muscle is a thin but strong membranous structure, the fibers of which are directed downward and medially.. It is joined with that of the opposite muscle along the middle line, and covers the whole of the front of the abdomen; above, it is covered by and gives origin to the lower fibers of the pectoralis major; below, its fibers are closely ...
