The i"ioin$uina" ner%e 49 The ilioinguinal nerve is formed in common with the iliohypogastric nerve. It passes through the superficial inguinal ring. The $enitofeora" ner%e The genitofemoral nerve is formed from +', ( and passes through the psoas to emerge on its anterior surface. It runs downwards on the psoas and divides into genital and femoral branches. The genital branch enters the inguinal canal through the deep inguinal ring to supply the cremasteric muscle and a small area of overlying skin. The femoral branch passes behind the inguinal ligament to enter the femoral sheath and supply the skin over the femoral triangle. Latera" #utaneous ner%e of the thi$h The lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh emerges at the lateral border of the psoas muscle.

It is also called lumber fascia because it is well developed in the lumbar region, but it extends upwards to the neck and downward to the sacrum.

It clothes the anterior and posterior abdominal walls, the under surface of the diaphragm, and the cavity of the pelvis. The %is#era" !eritoneu is the continuation of the parietal peritoneum which leaves the posterior wall of the abdominal cavity to invest certain viscera. 4etween the parietal and visceral layers of peritoneum is a potential space #the peritoneal cavity$. 3bdominal viscera are either suspended in the peritoneal cavity by folds of peritoneum #esenteries$ or are outside the peritoneal cavity.
