The lumbar nerves emerge just beneath or through thefibers of the psoas muscle, they then lie on the surface of the quadra-tus lumbarum until they reach the transversalis muscles beneathwhich they pass, after which they pursue the same general courseas the intercostals. At the outer edge of the rectus muscle (linea 346 LOCAL ANESTHESIA semilunares) branches are given off which pass forward throughthe anterior rectal sheath to the subcutaneous tissues, these branchesare always encountered at or near the Unea transversae, though ?r^ crcilcr iplmirlmir jiyphni^m X Clnlia^ \ nt-rvc ^ / iiiUrcoslal n commttnlcans?fercostai nerve Xtf medial crus ofliimb. port, vfdiaphragm ^lumbar nerve i. coccygeal ganglion coccygeal nerve sacml nen-e V plexus sacral plexus Fig. 76.—The abdominal and pelvic portions of the sympathetic trunk.
