Fasciae and ligaments of the abdominal wall: want to learn more about it?

Are there folds or ligaments in the abdominal wall?

Peritoneum. Some of these are properly called folds, for example the omentum ( greater and lesser omentum ), some are called mesenteries and others ligaments. A peritoneal ligament consists of a double layer of peritoneum (serous membrane lining the abdominal cavity) that connects an organ with another organ to the abdominal wall.

What is the purpose of the abdominal wall?

Their purpose is to innervate the skin on a man’s scrotum and the area over the pubic bone in women, the labia majora and portions of the thigh. Other areas they oversee are the transversus abdominis and internal oblique muscles.
