Superficial Fascia of Abdominal Wall :
Superficial Fatty layer (Camper)
Deep Membranous Layer (Scarpa)
Definition
Above umblicus: Fatty layer (camper) is continuous with Superficial fascia of adjoining parts of body. Membranous layer (Scarpa) merges with the Fatty Layer.

Below Umblicus:
Superficial Fatty Layer: Fascia of Camper in Abdomen. In Perineum: (Penis- Devoid of fat) (Scrotum: Dartos Muscle)
Deep Membranous Layer : Scarpa's Fascia in Abdomen, Colle's Fascia in Perineum.
In median plane, membranous layer forms : Suspensory ligament of Penis or clitoris
Term
Cutaneous Nerves of Anterior Abdominal Wall
Definition
Anteriorly:
Anterior Primary Rami of T7-T12 and L1 (Iliohypogastric)

They pierce the Rectus Sheath, and then divide into Lateral and Medial Branches.

T7 - supplies Near Xiphoid process
T10- Near umblicus
L1- Near superficial inguinal ring
Terminal part of L1 passes through superficial inguinal ring, pierces External Spermatic Fascia, and then supplies External Genitalia and upper part of skin of the medial side of thigh

Lateral Cutaneous Nerves : T10, T11- pierces External Intercostal Muslce and divides into Anterior and Posterior branches. Emerge b/w digitations of External Oblique.
Lateral Cutaneous branch of T12, L1 supply skin of anterosuperior part of gluteal region.
Term

Definition
Anterior Cutaneous Arteries :
1- Superior Epigastric artery (br. of internal thoracic)
2- Inferior Epigastric Artery (br. of External Iliac A.)

Lateral Cutaneous Arteries :
3- Branches of lower intercostal Arteries

Branches of Femoral Artery
4. Superficial Epigastric Artery : skin of abdomen uptil Umblicus
5. Superficial Inguinal : lower part of abdomen
6. Superficial External Pudendal : External Genitalia
7. Superficial Circumflex Iliac : skin of thigh and abdomen
