00:00 If you turn the patient, well, turn Johnny around, you'll see the lower border of L1 vertebra. 00:11 What happens in adults? Spinal cord ends? Okay, so the start of your conus medullaris in adults. 00:22 Because your right kidney is lower than the left, the upper pole of the right kidney is in transpyloric plane. 00:28 Here is the hilum, so the left hilum and the upper pole of the right kidney. 00:38 Okay, these are all in the transpyloric plane. 00:40 Coming to the kidneys since we are there, What's the vertebral, what's the approximate height of the kidneys in terms of centimeters? 10 yes, 10 we would accept. 00:51 It's about three vertebral spaces, three vertebrae at level, so about 10 centimeters The width is approximately 5 to 7 centimeters, Over 5 centimeters kidneys at the back. 01:04 Blood supply to the kidneys, where does it come from? Blood supply, renal arteries, fine. 01:11 Just turn around please. 01:13 That way. Thank you. 01:14 So, those are things in the transpyloric plane. 01:18 While we are there, we'll just go to the next part which will be the layers you go through when you make a surgical incision. 01:29 So, midline laparotomy incision, tell me the layers you go through. 01:35 Skin, yes. 01:41 Not in the midline. 01:45 Not really, okay. 01:53 Well, pretty much in the linea alba. 02:00 You have the transversalis fascia, transversalis fascia as well, then the preperitoneal fat and then the peritoneum. 02:08 So here, only if you go slightly laterally, you will come across the Camper's fascia and the Scarpa's fascia in the midline. 02:14 If you make the same incision, let's say it's a paramedian incision, say if you come over on here then you'll go through skin, Camper's fascia, Scarpa's fascia. 02:25 Now, you understand that the abdomen does not have a deep fascia. 02:29 Abdomen has a superficial fascia which has got two layers, Superficial, deep, superficial and deep. 02:36 But that is not the traditional deep fascia you've got in the leg. 02:40 Okay, but we call it Campers and Scarpas. 02:43 Then what are these you have here?
