A manual of examinations : upon anatomy, physiology, surgery, practice of medicine, chemistry, obstetrics, materia medica, pharmacy and therapeutics, especially designed for students of medicine, to which is added a medical formulary . r surface of the xiphoid cartilage, internal surface of cartilages ofFig. 62. last true and all the false ribs, from external liga mentum arcuatum,^ andfrom the convex edge ofthe true ligament. In-sertion : cordiform ten-don. Of the lesser muscleof the diaphragm ? ° —?Origin: right crus, fromthe fore part of thebodies of the four firstlumbar vertebrae. In-sertion : posterior bor-der of the cordiformtendon. What are the open-ings in the diaphragm,and their use ? — Onein the tendinous centre,^foramen quadratum, transmitting the iiena cava ascendens, an ellip-tical oipening,^^ foj^ainen oesophageum, for the oesophagus and par va-geum nerves, and the hiatus aorticus,^^ through which passes the aorta,the thoracic duct, the azygos vein, and splanchnic nerve. The dia-phragm, as a whole, diminishes the abdominal cavity, and vice versa,as it is raised. What is the origin, insertion, and use of the quadratus lumborum? *Origin : posterior fourth of spine of the ilium and ilio-lumbar liga-. ANATOMY. 91 ment. Insertion: into the extremity of transverse processes of ttefour first lumbar vertebrae and last dorsal, and also from the posteriorhalf of last rib. Use : to bend the trunk to one side, or forward. Of the psoas muscle ? ^* — Origin : from the sides of the bodiesof the lumbar and lower dorsal vertebras, and from their transverse pro-cesses. Insertion : into the cavity of the pelvis, back part of the lessertrochanter of os femons and ridge below it. Use : to bend the loins. Of the iliacus internus ? — Origin : transverse process of the lastlumbar vertebra, from three anterior fourths of crest of ilium, ante-rior spinous processes, brim of acetabulum, iliac fossa and fascia. In-sertion : with the psoas muscles into the anterior and inn
