Fascia transversalis · Příčná povázka
Fascia & connective tissue
Looks like
A thin sheet of connective tissue lining the inner surface of the deepest belly muscle, just outside the peritoneum.
What it does
Forms an inner layer of the belly wall; the deep ring of the groin canal is an opening in it.
Keeping it well
Weakness in it lets direct groin hernias bulge through; a groin lump on coughing or lifting needs a doctor.
