  2. Abdominal internal oblique muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal_internal_oblique...

    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. Rectus sheath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectus_sheath

    The rectus sheath (also called the rectus fascia [1]) is a tough fibrous compartment formed by the aponeuroses of the transverse abdominal muscle, and the internal and external oblique muscles. It contains the rectus abdominis and pyramidalis muscles, as well as vessels and nerves. [2]

  4. 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 ...

  5. Abdominal muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal_muscles

    Abdominal muscles cover the anterior and lateral abdominal region and meet at the anterior midline. These muscles of the anterolateral abdominal wall can be divided into four groups: the external obliques , the internal obliques , the transversus abdominis , and the rectus abdominis .

  6. Transverse abdominal muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_abdominal_muscle

    The transverse abdominal muscle (TVA), also known as the transverse abdominis, transversalis muscle and transversus abdominis muscle, is a muscle layer of the anterior and lateral (front and side) abdominal wall, deep to (layered below) the internal oblique muscle. It is thought by most fitness instructors to be a significant component of the core.

  7. Iliohypogastric nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iliohypogastric_nerve

    The anterior cutaneous branch ("hypogastric branch") continues onward between the abdominal internal oblique and transverse muscles.. It then pierces the internal oblique, becomes cutaneous by perforating the aponeurosis of the external oblique about 2.5 cm above the subcutaneous inguinal ring, and is distributed to the skin of the hypogastric region.

  8. Lumbar triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbar_triangle

    The superior lumbar (Grynfeltt-Lesshaft) triangle is formed medially by the quadratus lumborum, laterally by the posterior border of internal abdominal oblique muscle, and superiorly by the 12th rib. The floor of the superior lumbar triangle is the transversalis fascia and its roof is the external

  9. Thoracolumbar fascia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoracolumbar_fascia

    It entails the fasciae and aponeuroses of the latissimus dorsi muscle, serratus posterior inferior muscle, abdominal internal oblique muscle, and transverse abdominal muscle. [4] In the lumbar region, it is known as lumbar fascia and here consists of 3 layers (posterior, middle, and anterior) enclosing two muscular compartments.
