Presacral fascia

Our option Small space between presacral fascia and sacral and coccygeal vertebrae containing vessels... 

A small presacral subcompartment (see Table 1.1) is situated in front of the sacrum and coccyx. It is bordered by the caudal segments of the vertebral column dorsally and ventrolaterally, it is clearly demarcated by the pelvic parietal fascia (see Table 1.1) (Fig. 1.2), which is called presacral fascia (see Table 1.1) at this position. In fetuses, the presacral subcompartment contains loose connective tissue, but it is predominated by large presacral veins. 

What is situated outside the rectal fascia and therefore outside the perirectal subcompartment Dorsally, the presacral subcompartment is loosely attached to the perirectal compartment (see above). Laterally the supplying structures (autonomic nerves and branches of the iliac vessels) of the urogenital organs constitute a nerve-vessel plate (Fig. 1.3c). The latter is accompanied by connective tissue and fills the remaining space between the perirectal compartment...
