Dissection of anterolateral abdominal wall
Internal aspect of lower abdominal wall, peritoneum intact
The umbilicus lies just above the upper margin of the photograph. The medial inguinal fossa (5) is unusually deep on the right side. This should be compared to the more normal situation on the left. The right ductus deferens passes toward the inguinual canal in a prominent band of peritoneum (10). The dissection of the internal aspect of the abdominal wall is shown in views 136-6 and 136-7.
