From Alexander's:

An oblique right or left inguinal incision extends from the public tubercle to the anterior iliac crest, slightly above and parallel to the inguinal crease. This is the standard incision for open inguinal herniorrhaphy. Incision through the external oblique muscle provides access to the cremaster muscles, inguinal canal, and cord structures. This incision does not typically interrupt major abdominal arteries.

Long, lower abdominal oblique incisions are used for transplant, urologic, and vascular procedures. Those incisions require transection of the abdominal wall and flank musculature. They may require ligation of the deep inferior epigastric artery.
