| Secondary hernia of abdomen |
Finding site |
This segment relates to the volume of the trunk that is bounded by and includes: superiorly thoracic diaphragm and inferiorly the perineum and external genitalia. The volume includes the entire transverse thickness of the body over the longitudinal extent between these upper (superior) and lower (inferior) boundaries including the overlying muscles, skin and subcutaneous tissue. The segment includes the abdominopelvic cavity, contents and wall including the posterior lumbar region, the volume of the true and false pelvic cavities including the bony pelvis and pelvic wall, the entire perineum and external genitalia including skin and subcutaneous tissue. |

| Secondary hernia of abdomen |
Finding site |
This is considered the most commonly used clinical variant of 'abdomen' and relates to the space and content within the abdominopelvic cavity plus the anterior and lateral abdominal wall. The volume is bounded by, but excludes: superiorly the thoracic diaphragm; inferiorly the pelvic diaphragm; and posteriorly the posterior wall of the abdomen proper: The pelvic component consists of the cavity of the true pelvis, which is bounded by, but excludes, the pelvic wall. Anteriorly this volume is bounded and includes the anterior abdominal (including the lateral abdominal wall). |

| Secondary hernia of abdomen |
Finding site |
This structure comprises the space and content within the boundaries of the abdominopelvic cavity but excludes the walls that define and enclose the space. Previously SNOMED CT used the word 'compartment' to describe structures comprising the cavity and content but FMA has used the same word to include cavity, content and wall. As a consequence, the preferred notation is intra-abdominopelvic structure as this more clearly excludes the 'wall' structures. The intra-abdominopelvic structure is bounded by, but excludes the following 'wall' structures: superiorly the thoracic diaphragm; inferiorly the pelvic diaphragm; anteriorly the anterior abdominal wall (including the lateral abdominal wall); and posteriorly the wall of the abdominal proper segment of trunk. The pelvic component consists of the cavity and content of the true pelvis, which is bounded by the pelvic wall. Note, the structures that form the boundaries are excluded. |
