    Study Notes

    Body Regions and Major Contents

    • Torso: Comprises trunk, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and perineum.
    • Head: Contains the skull, brain, eyes, nose, and oral cavity.
    • Neck: Houses skeletal muscles, salivary glands, blood vessels, and major nerves.
    • Thorax: Encloses the heart, lungs, great blood vessels, major nerves, oesophagus, trachea, and ribs.
    • Abdomen: Home to the stomach, liver, intestines, spleen, and kidneys.
    • Pelvis: Contains reproductive organs, urinary bladder, and rectum.
    • Upper Limbs: Composed of skeletal muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and bones.
    • Lower Limbs: Similar composition as upper limbs with skeletal muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and bones.

    Overview of the Muscular System

    • Definition: Encompasses all muscles within the human body.
    • Properties of Muscular Tissue:
      • Electrical excitability
      • Contractility
      • Extensibility
      • Elasticity

    Types of Muscle

    • Skeletal Muscle:

      • Contains long, threadlike cells.
      • Attached to bones; voluntary control.
      • Multi-nucleated and striated appearance.

    • Smooth Muscle:

      • Fusiform shape, short cells (myocytes).
      • Involuntary; contains 1 nucleus.
      • Present in digestive, respiratory, and urinary tracts.

    • Cardiac Muscle:

      • Striated appearance; cells (cardiomyocytes) are shortened.
      • Involuntary; connected by intercalated discs.
      • Exclusive to the heart (myocardium).

    Muscle Group Examples

    • Thoracic Wall Muscles: Includes trachealis muscle.
    • Abdominal Wall Muscles: Detrusor muscle for bladder support.
    • Back Muscles: Comprises the erector spinae and transversospinales muscles.
    • Pelvic Floor Muscles: Includes external and internal urethral sphincters.
    • Perineum Muscles: Encompasses deep transverse perineal muscle.

    Abdominal Wall Anatomy

    • Inguinal Triangle:
      • Bound by rectus sheath, inferior epigastric artery, and inguinal ligament; common site for inguinal hernia.
    • Inguinal Ligament:
      • Connects anterior superior iliac spine to pubic tubercle; formed by external oblique aponeurosis.

    Abdominal Fascia

    • Anterior Abdominal Wall:
      • Comprises 2 layers of superficial fascia: Camper's (fatty) and Scarpa's (membranous).
    • Posterior Abdominal Wall:
      • Contains muscles, covered by fascia, closely associated with kidney surfaces; includes iliopsoas muscle (iliacus + psoas major).

    Diaphragm

    • Function: Separates thoracic and abdominal cavities; primary muscle of respiration.
    • Structure:
      • Composed of a muscular peripheral part (left and right domes) and a central tendon.
    • Arches and Openings:
      • Contains crura (right and left) and arcuate ligaments (median, medial, lateral).
      • Features three main openings for aorta (T12), esophagus (T10), and inferior vena cava (T8).

    Back Muscles

    • Support and Posture: Essential for maintaining posture, consists of superficial, intermediate, and deep muscle groups:
      • Superficial Muscles: Trapezius, latissimus dorsi, levator scapulae, rhomboids.
      • Intermediate Muscles: Serratus posterior superior and inferior.
      • Deep Muscles: Spinotransversales, erector spinae, transversospinales, and segmental muscles.

    Perineum Muscles

    • Deep Perineal Muscles: Located in the deep perineal pouch, includes external urethral sphincter and deep transverse perineal muscle, present in both sexes.
    • Anal Triangle Muscles: Contains external anal sphincter, a voluntary skeletal muscle. Internal anal sphincter is smooth muscle and involuntary, not included in this group.
