May not involve any tearing of tissues, especially if processus vaginalis is patent. Accounts for ~75% of inguinal hernias. Ten times more common in males than in females, because of larger inguinal canal. Direct inguinal hernia – Peritoneal contents push through tear in abdominal wall, most commonly emerging through superficial inguinal ring. Necessarily involves tearing the conjoint tendon (internal oblique and transversus abdominis aponeuroses). May also tear external oblique aponeurosis if hernia proceeds through supravesical fossa (rare). Accounts for ~25% of inguinal hernias, mostly in males older than 40. Femoral hernia – Peritoneal contents pass through femoral ring, emerge inferior to inguinal ligament. May not involve any tearing of tissues. More common in females than in males, because of proportionally wider bone structure of female pelvis.

  • BODY CAVITIES and MESENTERY
    73: BODY CAVITIES and MESENTERY We've already mentioned that all the organs in the body are wrapped in "bags" made of thin layers of connective tissue. These bags are often inside of other bags, or even inside of several bags. The largest bags define areas that we call body cavities. There are three main cavities: the thoracic cavity, the abdominal cavity and the pelvic cavity. The thoracic cavity is subdivided into three smaller cavities: the pleural cavity (containing the lungs), the mediastinum(in the middle), and the pericardial cavity (containing the heart). The pleural cavity is easy to understand because it simply contains the lungs. The pericardial cavity contains not only the heart itself, but the large blood vessels that come out of it, such as the aorta. The pericardial cavity is inside of the third cavity, the mediastinum. ("Media" means "middle" and "stinum" can refer to the "sternum," which is the bone that runs down the center of the ribcage.) The mediastinum contains not only the pericardial cavity but also part of the esophagus and trachea, the thymus (remember this organ from module 2 on the immune system?), and quite a few nerves and lymph nodes. The thin layers of connective tissues that surround these cavities are made primarily of collagen and elastin (produced by fibroblast cells) but they also contain some very tiny nerves and blood vessels, as well as cells that make serous fluid. As we've seen in the past few lessons, the diaphragm separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity. The abdominal cavity contains the stomach, the spleen, the tail of the pancreas, the last half of the duodenum, the small intestines, most of the large intestines, and the mesentery (thin layers of connective tissue that anchor the intestines to the back wall of the abdominal cavity).

    Dr. ALSHIKH YOUSSEF Haiyan General features The peritoneum is a thin serous membrane Consisting of: 1- Parietal peritoneum －lines the ant. Abdominal wall and the pelvis 2- Visceral peritoneum - covers the viscera 3- Peritoneal cavity - the potential space between the parietal and visceral layer of peritoneum - in male, is a closed sac - but in the female, there is a communication with the exterior through the uterine tubes, the uterus, and the vagina ▪ Peritoneum cavity divided into Greater sac Lesser sac Communication between them by the epiploic foramen The peritoneum The peritoneal cavity is the largest one in the body. Divided into tow sac : .Greater sac; extends from diaphragm down to the pelvis. Lesser Sac .Lesser sac or omental bursa; lies behind the stomach. .Both cavities are interconnected through the epiploic foramen(winslow ). .In male : the peritoneum is a closed sac . .In female : the sac is not completely closed because it Greater Sac communicates with the exterior through the uterine tubes, uterus and vagina. Peritoneum in transverse section The relationship between viscera and peritoneum Intraperitoneal viscera viscera is almost totally covered with visceral peritoneum example, stomach, 1st & last inch of duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, vermiform appendix, transverse and sigmoid colons, spleen and ovary Intraperitoneal viscera Interperitoneal viscera Retroperitoneal viscera Interperitoneal viscera Such organs are not completely wrapped by peritoneum one surface attached to the abdominal walls or other organs. Example liver, gallbladder, urinary bladder and uterus Upper part of the rectum, Ascending and Descending colon Retroperitoneal viscera some organs lie on the posterior abdominal wall Behind the peritoneum they are partially covered by peritoneum on their anterior surfaces only Example kidney, suprarenal gland, pancreas, upper 3rd of rectum duodenum, and ureter, aorta and I.V.C The Peritoneal Reflection The peritoneal reflection include: omentum, mesenteries, ligaments, folds, recesses, pouches and fossae.

  • Inguinofemoral Area
    Inguinofemoral Area Inguinal Canal Anatomy of the Inguinal Canal in Infants and Children There are readily apparent differences between the inguinal canals of infants and adults. In infants, the canal is short (1 to 1.5 cm), and the internal and external rings are nearly superimposed upon one another. Scarpa's fascia is so well developed that the surgeon may mistake it for the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle, resulting in treating a superficial ectopic testicle as an inguinal cryptorchidism. There also may be a layer of fat between the fascia and the aponeurosis. We remind surgeons of the statement of White that the external oblique fascia has not been reached as long as fat is encountered. In a newborn with an indirect inguinal hernia, there is nothing wrong with the posterior wall of the inguinal canal. Removal of the sac, therefore, is the only justifiable procedure. However, it is extremely difficult to estimate the weakness of the newborn's posterior inguinal wall by palpation. If a defect is suspected, a few interrupted permanent sutures might be used to perform the repair. Adult Anatomy of the Inguinal Canal The inguinal canal in the adult is an oblique rift in the lower part of the anterior abdominal wall. It measures approximately 4 cm in length. It is located 2 to 4 cm above the inguinal ligament, between the opening of the external (superficial) and internal (deep) inguinal rings. The boundaries of the inguinal canal are as follows: Anterior: The anterior boundary is the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle and, more laterally, the internal oblique muscle.

  • Describe the Anatomy of the Inguinal Canal. How May Direct and Indirect Hernias Be Differentiated Anatomically
    Describe the anatomy of the inguinal canal. How may direct and indirect hernias be differentiated anatomically. How may they present clinically? Essentially, the function of the inguinal canal is for the passage of the spermatic cord from the scrotum to the abdominal cavity. It would be unreasonable to have a single opening through the abdominal wall, as contents of the abdomen would prolapse through it each time the intraabdominal pressure was raised. To prevent this, the route for passage must be sufficiently tight. This is achieved by passing through the inguinal canal, whose features allow the passage without prolapse under normal conditions. The inguinal canal is approximately 4 cm long and is directed obliquely inferomedially through the inferior part of the anterolateral abdominal wall. The canal lies parallel and 2-4 cm superior to the medial half of the inguinal ligament. This ligament extends from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle. It is the lower free edge of the external oblique aponeurosis. The main occupant of the inguinal canal is the spermatic cord in males and the round ligament of the uterus in females. They are functionally and developmentally distinct structures that happen to occur in the same location. The canal also transmits the blood and lymphatic vessels and the ilioinguinal nerve (L1 collateral) from the lumbar plexus forming within psoas major muscle. The inguinal canal has openings at either end – the deep and superficial inguinal rings. The deep (internal) inguinal ring is the entrance to the inguinal canal. It is the site of an outpouching of the transversalis fascia.

Nonetheless, even though there is a plethora of information meant to assist clinicians to achieve a better practice, there is no universal understanding of its complexity. This in turn increases the morbidity rates due to iatrogenic causes, as mistakes that could be avoided are repeated. For this reason, this review attempts to gather current knowledge regarding the detailed anatomy of the rectum and to organize and present it in a manner that focuses on its clinical implications, not only for the colorectal surgeon, but most importantly for all colorectal cancer-related specialties.
