Abstract:
Pelvic fascia is considered to be one controversial human anatomic structure. According to the characteristics of specialized surgery, colorectal surgeons, gynecologic surgeons and urologic surgeons respectively marked the pelvic fascia, but the naming is not unified. For some specific anatomic structures (such as pelvic plexus), different scholars have different descriptions of their positions. The lack of standard anatomic terms makes it difficult to understand the corresponding anatomic structures, and also hinders the communication between disciplines. Combined with autopsy research, surgical observation and literature review, we discussed the common puzzles of pelvic clinical anatomy. The main points of this article are as follows. (1) Urogenital fascia and vesicohypogastric fascia are the components of visceral fascia. (2) The visceral fascia and fascia propria of rectum are two separate layers. (3) The pelvic plexus is located on the outside of the confluence of visceral fascia and Denonvilliers′ fascia. (4) To understand the pelvic lateral ligament from the perspective of layers. (5) To understand pelvic fascia from a holistic perspective.
