  • Description                                                                
    • * Is a tendinous median raphe between the two rectus abdominis muscles, formed by the fusion of the aponeuroses of the external oblique, internal oblique, and transverse abdominal muscles.
    • * Extends from the xiphoid process to the pubic symphysis and, in pregnancy, it becomes a pigmented vertical line (linea nigra), probably due to hormone stimulation to produce more melanin.
