DEEP FASCIAE OF THE HEAD
A deep layer attached to the buccal wall
BUCCOPHARYNGEAL FASCIA
A more superficial layer passes under the masseter muscle and over the facial musculature to insert on the facial crest.
BUCCOPHARYNGEAL FASCIA
Covers the temporal muscle and attaches to the orbital and the zygomatic arch.
TEMPORAL FASCIA
Extends between the pterygoid, the dorsal border of the mandible and the hyoid apparatus.
PHARYNGOBASILAR FASCIA
DEEP FASCIA OF THE TRUNK
Portion covering the thoracic and lumbar region.
THOROCOLUMBAR FASCIA
A strong part of this fascia forms the aponeurosis of the broadest muscle of the back (m. latissimus dorsi) and the caudal portion of the dorsal serrated muscle (m. serratus dorsalis caudalis).
APONEUROTIC CONNECTIONS
BROADEST MUSCLE OF THE BACK
M. LATISSIMUS DORSI
Cranioventrally, it continues as the axillary fascia (fascia axillaris).
REGIONAL CONTINUITY
Caudally, it continues as the gluteal fascia (fascia glutea).
REGIONAL CONTINUITY
It passes over the scapular region.
SPINOCOSTOTRANSVERAL FASCIA
Forms three layers in the horse.
SPINOCOSTOTRANSVERSAL FASCIA
The deep fascia of the trunk also forms the?
internal fascia of the trunk.
This fascia lies on the deep surfaces of the muscles of the body wall and blends with the serosal linings of the body cavities.
INTERNAL FASCIA OF THE TRUNK
INTERNAL FASCIA OF THE TRUNK INCLUDES:
Internal fascia of the trunk that can be found in the thoracic cavity.
ENDOTHORACIC FASCIA
Internal fascia of the trunk that can be found in the abdominal cavity.
TRANSVERSAL FASCIA
Internal fascia of the trunk that can be found in the pelvic cavity.
PELVIC FASCIA
Internal fascia of the trunk that can be found covers the deep lumbar muscles.
