\Body region structure\Body part structure\Trunk structure\Structure of subregion of trunk (body structure)\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.\This segment relates to the volume of the trunk that is bounded superiorly by and includes: the thoracic diaphragm and inferiorly by the superior pelvic aperture. It incorporates the abdominal proper cavity (including the volume of the false pelvis), contents and wall including the lumbar vertebral column and all the overlying muscles, skin and subcutaneous tissue. It consequently includes the intra-abdomen proper structure, the anterior abdominal wall and the posterior lumbar region. Note, the entire bony pelvis although forming part of the boundary is excluded True
