Many people have had an influence on this process and probably are not even aware of it. That is the beauty of the interconnectedness of complexity. The following people are but an attenuated list. Mr. Guy Voyer, Pht, MD, DO for introducing me to the vast potentialities of utilizing efficiently a complex way of critical thinking. Ms. Chantale Bertrand, DO for always having the ability to govern me with an almost motherly strictness during this process. Your passion for osteopathy is unrelenting. Mr. John D’Aguanno for many profound philosophical conversations regarding the philosophy of osteopathy. Mr. Kevin Fairfield for never ceasing to amaze me with his depth of knowledge along with his ability and willingness to transfer it. Mr. Tony Grande for offering the sincerest of necessary reality checks on an ongoing basis. Dr. Shiraz Elkheir, MD for offering a both medical and surgical point of view to our many conversations either in the dissecting lab or otherwise. Mr. Scott Beylea for his generous assistance and valuable input during the final editing process of chapters 1 and 2.

    PELVIC FLOOR Dr.Shailaja Shetty, Professor & HOD, Dept. of Anatomy, MSRMC, Bangalore OUTLINE INTRODUCTION UROGENITAL DIAPHRAGM PELVIC DIAPHRAGM PERINEAL BODY PELVIC PERITONEUM INTRODUCTION The outlet of the true pelvis is called the pelvic floor. It is gutter shaped. Inclined at an angle of 5-15 degrees from the horizontal. UROGENITAL DIAPHRAGM It is a musculo-fascial partition across the pubic arch, between the ischial tuberosities and the pubic symphysis. Lies superficial to the pelvic diaphragm In female the U-G diaphragm is less defined due to the presence of vagina. Hence it is also called triangular ligament UROGENITAL DIAPHRAGM Consist of: 2 muscles: Sphincter urethrae and Transversus perinei profundus 2 fasciae: Superior and inferior fasciae of urogenital diaphragm 2 structures piercing it: vagina behind and urethra in front UROGENITAL DIAPHRAGM MUSCLES FORMING U-G DIAPHRAGM 1. SPHINCTER URETHRAE: 2. TRANSVERSE PERINEI It encircles the membranous PROFUNDUS: urethra Situated behind the sphincter It has a superficial part and urethrae deep part. SPHINCTER URETHRAE Superficial part: Arise from the transverse perineal ligament and adjacent pubic arch Passes backwards by the side of the urethra Inserted into the perineal body Deep part: Arise from the inner side of the ischio-pubic ramus and pudendal canal. It encircles the urethra and is continuous with similar fibers of opposite side TRANSVERSE PERINEI PROFUNDUS Arises from the inner surface of the ischial ramus . Inserted into the perineal body where it intermingles with the opposite side muscles. NERVE SUPPLY: Both muscles are supplied by muscular branches of the perineal nerve.

Complete Peer review History: http://www.sdiarticle3.com/review-history/46765 Received 05 January 2019 Accepted 20 January 2019 Case Study Published 20 February 2019 ABSTRACT Introduction: Supravesical hernia (SVH) or paravesical hernia is a rare condition and it is believed to be caused due to Weakness between the transversus abdominis aponeurosis and the transversalis fascia. They are mainly acquired and usually associated with inguinal hernia. The external and the internal variety of SVH is commonly presented as direct inguinal hernia and intestinal obstruction or undiagnosed abdominal pain respectively. Case Report: A 40 year old male was posted for TransAbdominal PrePeritoneal (TAPP) hernia repair for a direct inguinal hernia. Intraoperatively we diagnosed him with a supravesical hernia with an unusual internal opening over the medial umbilical ligament. Discussion: SVH is a rare variety of pelvic hernia which protrudes through Supra Vesical or Paravesical Fossa (SVF). SVF is an area above the urinary bladder between the median umbilical ligament and medial umbilical ligament.

  • Coordinatore Nazionale Compap: Traduttore
    Coordinatore Nazionale ComPap: Traduttore: Dr. Carlo Rappa Dr. Alessandro Santarelli Strutture anatomiche a rischio nei vari approcci di fissazione al sacrospinoso Per 50 anni, la fissazione al legamento sacrospinoso (SSLF) è stata utilizzata per il trattamento del prolasso degli organi pelvici conseguente all'alterata integrità delle strutture pelviche miofasciali. Di solito tale procedura viene eseguita per via vaginale, ma recentemente è stato introdotto un approccio anteriore o posteriore eseguito per via laparoscopica, utilizzando il legamento largo come landmark anatomico. Nel presente studio, questi due approcci laparoscopici sono stati valutati usando cadaveri imbalsamati di Thiel. L’approccio anteriore e posteriore è stato comparato in termini di distanza più vicina alle strutture anatomiche a rischio (visceri pelvici, nervo otturatorio e strutture vascolari). L'approccio posteriore era in termini di distanza più vicino alle strutture vascolari e al retto. Il nervo otturatorio e l'uretere erano vicini in entrambi gli approcci utilizzati, mentre la vescica era più vicina nell'approccio anteriore. Da un punto di vista anatomico, quindi, l'approccio laparoscopico anteriore per la SSLF ha maggiori probabilità di causare lesioni alla vescica, mentre l'approccio posteriore è più a rischio per lesioni vascolari e al retto. Questo studio illustra, da una prospettiva scientifica di base, l'importanza di combinare la chirurgia fasciale a nuove tecniche chirurgiche endoscopiche o minimamente invasive basate su dati anatomici e nuovi approcci chirurgici per migliorare gli outcome attesi sulle pazienti. Oral comunication Anatomical Structures at Risk Using Different Approaches for Sacrospinous Ligament Fixation Clin. Anat. 00:000–000, 2019 For 50 years now, sacrospinous ligament fixation (SSLF) has been used to treat pelvic organ prolapse consequent on altered integrity of the pelvic myofascial structures.

  • The Mesenteric Organ: New Anatomical Concepts and an Imaging-Based Review on Its Diseases Hanna R.F

Coffey, MB., B.Ch., BAO., B.MedSci., PhD, FRCSI,x and Giuseppe D’Ippolito, MD, PhD*,† The proposal of reclassifying the mesentery as an organ prompts clinicians and radiologists to reappraise their approach to it and to mesenteric diseases (mesenteropathies). Recent updates in mesenteric anatomy and the better comprehension of its structure constitute a basis to push forward the process of disease management and allow the development of less radical (including endoscopic, radiological, and pharmacotherapeutic) treatments. Radiological evaluation currently plays a pivotal role in the noninvasive characterization of abdominal diseases. Mesenteric-based radiological assessments form an essential compo- nent in planning radiological interventions and postoperative surveillance programs. The purpose of this article, therefore, is to provide an update on the new anatomical concepts related to the mesentery, also performing an imaging-based review of mesenteric diseases by categorizing them as primary and secondary.

  • The Diaphragm Is a Curved Musculofibrous Sheet That
    The diaphragm is a curved musculofibrous sheet that separates the thoracic from the abdominal cavity, it is mainly convex on the upper surface, and concave inferior surface. The muscle attachments are at a lower level posteriorly and laterally, but high anteriorly. The musclular part can be divide to three parts—sternal, costal and lumbar—based on the regions of peripheral attachment. The sternal part from the back of the xiphoid process; it is not always present. The costal part arises from the internal surfaces of the lower six costal cartilages and their adjoining ribs on each side. The lumbar part arises from two aponeurotic arches, the medial and lateral arcuate ligaments (sometimes termed lumbocostal arches) and from the lumbar vertebrae by two pillars or crura (sing. crus). The lateral arcuate ligament, a band in the fascia that covers quadratus lumborum, arches across the upper part of that muscle. It is attached medially to the front of the transverse process of the first lumbar vertebra, and laterally to the lower margin of the twelfth rib near its midpoint. The medial arcuate ligament is a tendinous arch in the fascia that covers the upper part of psoas major. Medially, it is continuous with the lateral tendinous margin of the corresponding crus, and is thus attached to the side of the body of the first or second lumbar vertebra; laterally, it is fixed to the front of the transverse process of the first lumbar vertebra. The crura are tendinous at their attachments, and blend with the anterior longitudinal ligament of the vertebral column.
