What is ilohypogastric nerve?
Ilohypogastric nerve is one of the two skin nerves of a three -wheel ligament, a strip of fibers that leads from the pelvis to hair. It comes from the anterior branch of one of the five spinal nerves called lumber the nerves that are located between the chest and the pelvis. Iloohypogastric nerve comes from its name from its position, hypogastrium, which is the lowest position of the abdomen-bind and hair. Like other nerves in the body, it provides innervation - in this case the hypogastrium and its surrounding areas.
Origin for the Iliohypogastric nerve is the backbone nerve L1, which is called because it is the highest lumbar nerve. Sometimes it serves as the origin of 12. The thoracic nerve. This nerve is also named after its location, which is the chest or the area between the head and the abdomen. This nerve is more often referred to as T12 or Subcoastal nerve.
Iliohypogastric Nerve travels the lateral boundary PSOAS Major Muscle, which is in the lumbar region. Then intersects in front of the four -sided muscle quadratus lumborum to reach ilIacal ridge and ran behind the kidneys. Near the iliakal ridge, the nerve abdominal muscle or transversus abdominis passes through. It is here that between the transverse muscle of the abdomen and the inner oblique muscle, the nerve is divided into two branches of ilohypogastric nerve - side skin and anterior skin.
Also known as the Iliac branch, because it travels over the iliakal crrest, the side skin branch is part of the ilohypogastric nerve, which is distributed to the gluteal area - more specifically on the skin of the buttocks - for innervation. It is called lateral because it goes to the side of the gluteal area. Anterior skin branch is also known as the hypogastric branch because it is transferred to the skin of the hypogastria.
From the two skin nerves of a three -wheel ligament, the ilohypogastric nerve is better, which means it is located above the other. Thus, the ilioinguinal nerve is referred to as the lower two branches. Like his counterpart comes from L1 and occasionallyT12. Its distribution, however, is to the upper area of the scrotum skin in men and the pubic major in women and the neighboring part of the thigh. Instead of distribution, men in men and the front labial nerve in women are called a distribution site.
