Innervation of the Rectus Abdominis Muscle

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1988
The usefulness of leaving lateral strips of the rectus abdominis muscle in place during a transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap procedure is questioned. Since textbooks do not agree on the course of the intercostal nerves in the rectus fascia and no precise description is given of the exact site of penetration of the nerves in the ...

Rupture of the Rectus Abdominis Muscle with Hematoma

Archives of Surgery, 1960
Rupture of the rectus abdominis muscle with hematoma is unusual enough so that few surgeons have much experience in its diagnosis and management. It has been referred to variously as "apoplexy of the abdominal wall," "rupture of the epigastric vessels," and "hematoma of the rectus sheath." The pathology is known to be rupture of fibers of either rectus

The Hot Rectus Abdominis Muscle Sign

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 1999
Uptake of bone-seeking agents in muscle has been described in conditions associated with muscular damage, including rhabdomyolysis, overexertion, polymyositis, myositis ossificans, ischemia, and electric burns. Uptake of Tc-99m phosphate compounds may occur secondary to binding to tissue hormone receptors, tissue calcium, denatured proteins, iron ...

Endoscopic Harvest of the Rectus Abdominis Muscle

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2000
The rectus abdominis muscle is a versatile muscle with many applications. The use of this muscle is often limited by its considerable donor site morbidity. This study reports a minimally invasive technique to harvest the rectus abdominis muscle. The described technique has been used successfully in 5 patients who required a superiorly based flap for ...

Archives of Surgery, 1965
RUPTURE OF the rectus abdominis muscle, or apoplexy of the deep epigastric artery, was known to physicians of antiquity, but its early recognition has challenged the diagnostic acumen of clinicians of our time. The following is a case report and attempt to evaluate new diagnostic measures and symptomatic clues, which should save the physician from the ...

Rectus Abdominis Muscle Endometriosis

Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology, 2011
Endometriosis is characterized by an abnormal existence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, typically occuring within the pelvis of women in reproductive age. We report two cases with endometriosis of the abdominal wall; the first one in the rectus abdominis muscle and the second one in the surgical scar of previous caesarean ...

HEMATOMA OF RECTUS ABDOMINIS MUSCLE

This case is reported because of its unusual character. Rupture of a blood vessel in the abdominal wall occurred, causing symptoms suggestive of an intra-abdominal pathologic condition. Mrs. M. R., aged 54, was admitted to the W. W. Backus Hospital, Aug. 21, 1931, complaining of pain in the lower part of the abdomen.

The Split Rectus Abdominis Free Muscle Transfer

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1987
The patient described in this article presented with chronic open infected medial and lateral malleolar wounds resulting from a compound tripod fracture of the right tibia and fibula. Primary wound coverage was achieved through the application of a split free rectus abdominis muscle transfer.
