Lecture Notes - Pelvic Neurovasculature |
|||||||||||||
VesselsInnervation
- Common Iliacs
- External Iliacs - vessel of lower limb
- Internal Iliacs - pelvis, gluteals, medial thigh, perineum
- Internal Iliac - highly variable!!
- posterior division - parietal branches only
- iliolumbar
- lateral sacral
- superior gluteal
- anterior division - parietal and visceral branches
- inferior gluteal
- obturator (30% aberrant)
- internal pudendal (around sacrospinous ligament)
- umbilical (1st branch off anterior division)
- superior vesical (artery of the ductus deferens)
- middle rectal
- inferior vesical (prostatic branches)
- uterine (relationship to ureter!!)
- vaginal
Review Intro to Autonomics Module - this is the time to make it all come together!
- Sacral Plexus
- ventral primary rami of L4,5 (aka, lumbosacral trunk) and S1,2,3,4
- relationship to piriformis muscle
- Autonomics
- Inferior hypogastric plexus (sides of rectum) - continuation of preaortic plexus via hypogastric nerves
- Sacral splanchnics - sympathetic fibers from sacral portion of sympathetic chain
- Pelvic splanchnics - parasympathetic fibers from S2,3,4
Also, review the formation of the inferior hypogastric plexus (Pelvic Autonomics Module)Pelvic Diaphragm/Floor
- where do sympathetics come from?
- where do parasympathetics come from?
- how are specific pelvic viscera innervated?
- Wall of Pelvic Cavity
- Obturator Internus m.
- Arcus Tendineus Levator Ani - attachment for portion of levator ani m.
- Piriformis m. - exits pelvis via greater sciatic foramen, sacral plexus lays on piriformis
- Floor or Diaphragm
- Above = pelvic cavity
- Below = perineum
- Coccygeus m. - on internal surface of sacrospinous ligament
- Levator Ani m.
- pubococcygeus
- iliococcygeus
- puborectalis
- genital hiatus
