Fascia and Triangles of Back 3D

  • Triangle of Auscultation
    • * The tibia is the medial bone of the leg. It is homologous with the radius of the upper limb.
    • *It has two ends, three borders, three surfaces, a tuberosity, and two condyles at the lower end.
    • * It has medial and lateral condyles that articulate with the condyles of the femur.
    • * It has a projection called the medial malleolus with a malleolar groove for the tendons of the tibialis posterior and flexor digitorum longus muscles
    • * It has groove (posterolateral to the malleolus groove) for the tendon of the flexor hallucis longus muscle.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
  • Triangle of Petit
    • * Is a small triangular area located in the lower back, just above the buttocks.
    • * Is formed by the posterior iliac crest, the latissimus dorsi muscle, and the external oblique muscle of the abdomen.
    • * Is an important anatomical landmark for identifying the location of the latissimus dorsi muscle, as well as for accessing the underlying structures during surgical procedures.
    • * Is also an important clinical landmark for diagnosing underlying pathologies of the lower back and buttocks, including hernias and abscesses.

 

  • Thoracolumbar Fascia
    • * Is a broad, sheet-like structure that covers the entire lower back and extends from the thoracic spine to the pelvis.
    • * Is composed of three layers: anterior (covers the quadratus lumborum muscle), middle (covers the erector spinae muscle), and posterior (covers the transversospinal muscles).
    • * Is divided into three parts: the lateral raphe, the intermediate raphe, and the medial raphe.
    • * Is attached to the iliac crest, the spinous processes of the thoracic vertebrae, and the sacrum.
    • * Plays an important role in stabilizing the lumbar spine, transferring loads from the upper body to the lower body, and assisting with the movement of the trunk.
