Description[edit | edit source]
Pyramidalis is a paired anterior triangular abdominal muscle with rectus abdominis that contributes to form the anterior abdominal wall. It's absent in 20% of the population and has a less significant role.
Origin[edit | edit source]
It arises from symphysis pubic and pubic crest
Insertion[edit | edit source]
It decreases in size as it ascends and inserts medially to linea alba as a pointed apex.
Nerve[edit | edit source]
It is innervated by subcostal nerve T12
Artery[edit | edit source]
The main arterial supply from the inferior epigastric supply and the deep circumflex iliac artery to a lesser extent.
Function[edit | edit source]
When they contract tense the linea alba, contract with other abdominal muscle to increase positive abdominal pressure.[1]
Clinical relevance[edit | edit source]
It is used as a surgical landmark as in cesarean section to define the midline of the linea alba[3]. used as a source of muscle stem cell in the treatment of post-prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence[4]
Pyramidalis attached directly to the adductor longus via anterior pubic ligament forming Pyramidalis anterior pubic ligament Adductor Longus complex PLAC and that will help in the treatment of proximal adductor avulsion.[5]
