If an abdominal pocket is to be created, one mnst be completely familiar with the anatomy of the anterior abdominal wall. This inclndes the mnltiple muscular and fascia layers (Fig. 4.46). One must be completely familiar with the anterior rectus sheath, rectus muscle and posterior rectus shealh, linea alba, and peritoneum. Failure to appreciate the anatomic relationships of the abdominal wall may result in inadvertent access of peritoneal cavity. An abdominal pocket... 

Fig. 5.2. Normal grey-scale ultrasound anatomy. Axial scan on the dorsal aspect of the penis showing the paired corpora cavernosa (CC), the corpus spongiosum (CS) and the penile septum (open arrows). The tunica albuginea (arrowheads) appears as a thin echogenic line surrounding the penile bodies. The Buck s fascia is visualized near the corpus spongiosum (curved arrows) while in the remaining portions is stuck on the tunica albuginea. The penile septum appears as an echogenic structure with back attenuation...

The reciprocal tension membrane (RTM) refers to the function ofthe mobility of intracranial and intraspinal membranes, the pia, arachnoid, and dura. Understanding the development and the anatomy of the membranes helps illustrate their function (see Section X, Chapter 102). The intracranial membranes are intimately related to the fascia throughout the rest of the body. 

Fig. 12.2. Anatomy of the anterior muscles and tendons of the hip. Schematic drawing of an anterior view through the hip illustrates the relationships of the anterior muscles to each other. The superficial tensor fasciae latae (Tfl) and sartorius (Sfl) arise from the anterior superior iliac spine (straight arrow). On a deeper plane, the rectus femoris (Rf) originates from the anterior inferior iliac spine (arrowhead). Observe the iliacus and the psoas muscles which join distally to insert through a common tendon onto the lesser trochanter (curved arrow). Medially to the iliopsoas tendon, the pectineus muscle (Pe) can be seen arising from the anterior aspect of the superior ramus of the pubis (Pb)...

Fig. 12.3a-h. Anatomy of the anterior group (flexors) of muscles and tendons of the hip. Series of schematic drawings (a,c,e,g) and corresponding T1-weighted MR images (b,d,fdi) illustrate the relationship among the tensor fasciae latae (TfL)(JVL), iliopsoas (IPs), sartorius (Sa) and rectus femoris (RF) in transverse planes obtained from proximal to distal. Muscle bellies are represented in intermediate gray, tendons in black. In a,b, a white arrowhead indicates the rectus femoris tendon. Note that the sartorius muscle crosses the iliopsoas from lateral to medial as it proceeds downwards. Arrow, fasciae latae... 

Fig. 14.10a-d. Anatomy of the peroneal nerve, a Schematic drawing of a lateral view of the knee illustrates the course of the common peroneal nerve (curved arrows) which branches from the sciatic nerve (black arrow) at the apex of the popliteal fossa and descends posterior to the biceps femoris muscle (Bf) and tendon (asterisk) to turn anteriorly around the fibular head. The nerve then continues down between the lateral side of the neck of the fibula and the peroneus longus muscle (PI). Here the peroneal nerve divides into its two terminal branches, the superficial peroneal nerve (white arrowhead) and the deep peroneal nerve (white arrow), md sends a recurrent articular branch (open arrowhead).b-d Transverse Tl-weighted MR images obtained at the levels indicated in a (horizontal bars) reveal the normal position of the common peroneal nerve (curved arrow) relative to the biceps tendon, the crural fascia (open arrowhead) fibular head (FH). Note the relationships of the main trunk and the superficial (white arrowhead) and deep (white arrow) peroneal nerves with the fibular and neck (FN). Black arrow, tibial nerve...
