About Abdomen
GoConqr OriginalWhat this unit covers
The Abdomen unit sits in the strand Regional Anatomy: Trunk and Limbs, within Anatomy. Its resources follow the body wall inwards: surface regions and quadrants, the anterior wall and inguinal canal, the peritoneum, the gut and its organs, blood supply, and the posterior wall with the kidneys.
Where to start
Begin with the basics of regions and layout. The quizzes Anterior Abdominal Wall and Organs by Quadrant ask about boundaries, the pelvic inlet and which organs sit where. The flashcard deck Introduction to Abdomen is a gentle first pass.
- Walls and regions: Anterior Abdominal Wall Muscles and the mind map on the layers of the rectus sheath.
- Inguinal region: Inguinal Canal flashcards and The Inguinal Region and Hernias quiz, then the spermatic cord mind maps.
- Peritoneum: the flashcards on the peritoneum and peritoneal cavity cover mesenteries such as the mesoappendix and sigmoid mesocolon, and the lesser and greater sacs.
Organs and vessels
The mind map The Spleen breaks the organ into gross anatomy, surface anatomy, ligaments, vasculature and pathology. The gut and liver deck covers the large intestine, the appendix and the vagal trunks. For vessels, use the mind maps on the abdominal aorta and the celiac trunk, plus the flowchart Abdominal Blood Supply: Arteries. The quizzes Portal Vein and Aorta/IVC test what you have read.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a mind map first to see how a topic fits together. Then take a quiz on the same topic and note what you missed. Return to the map for those branches, and use flashcards for the facts that will not stay put. The Kidneys and Posterior Abdominal Wall quiz, for example, asks you to drag labels onto the muscles and give the origin, insertion and innervation of quadratus lumborum.
Teachers can pull quizzes and maps into their own teaching. Choose a topic, open a resource, and see what you can recall.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with the Anterior Abdominal Wall quiz or the Introduction to Abdomen flashcards. Both cover the boundaries and layout of the abdominal cavity, which the later topics build on. After that, move on to the inguinal region, the peritoneum and then the organs.
What do the mind maps on this page cover?
They cover abdominal regions and quadrants, muscles, the rectus sheath, the spermatic cord, mesenteries, the spleen, the liver and gallbladder, and arterial supply including the abdominal aorta and celiac trunk. They suit a quick overview before a quiz.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Who made these resources?
They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. More than 100 contributors have added quizzes, flashcards, mind maps and notes, so the style and depth vary from one resource to the next.
Which levels are these resources for?
Nearly all of them are at university level, with a small share aimed at professional study. They suit university students working through regional anatomy, and teachers looking for ready-made material to share.
How can I test myself on blood supply?
Try the quiz on abdominal contents and viscera blood supply, then Portal Vein and Aorta/IVC. The flashcards on the blood supply of the gut and the mind map on arterial supply to the gut tube help you revise what you missed.
