The left iliac region, also known as the left inguinal region, is located in the lower left quadrant of the abdomen. It is situated below the left lumbar region and above the left thigh. This area contains various organs, including parts of the colon, the left ovary in females, and in some cases, the left ureter. It is often examined in clinical settings for conditions related to gastrointestinal or reproductive health.
yes, of the person, but if you are looking at a diagram its on THEIR right, or your left.
Well, honey, in the left iliac region, you've got the sigmoid colon, left ureter, left ovary and fallopian tube (if you're a lady), and maybe a bit of the left kidney hanging out nearby. Just a little neighborhood of organs chilling on the left side of your lower abdomen.
Right iliac doesn't belong because it refers to a specific region in the lower right abdomen, while the other terms relate to the upper abdomen or general abdominal regions.
There are four quadrants in the abdomen (quad meaning four) they are:* Right upper quadrant * Left upper quadrant * Right lower quadrant * Left lower quadrant The areas of the abdomen can also be described in more detail by dividing it into nine regions:* The umbilical region this is the middle region which surrounds the umbilicus. The umbilical region contains the transverse colon of the large intestine * The epigastric region this is the region just above (superior to) the umbilical region and contains the stomach * The hypogastric (or pubic) region is just under (inferior to) the umbilical region and contains the urinary bladder and the appendix * The right iliac (or inguinal) region is located to the right of the hypogastric region and contains the caecum. * The left iliac (inguinal) region is located to the left of the hypogastric region and contains the initial part of the sigmoid colon * The right lumbar region is to the right of the umbilical region (and above the right iliac region) and contains the ascending colon of the large intestine * The left lumbar region is to the left of the umbilical region (and above the left iliac region) and contains the descending colon of the large intestine * The right hypochondriac region is to the right of the epigastric region (and above the right lumbar region) and contains the liver and the gallbladder * The left hypochondriac region is to the left of the epigastric region (and above the left lumbar region) and contains part of the stomach and part of the descending colon.
The hypogastric region is named for its location under the stomach.
On the left side, you have left iliac region. On the right side, you have right iliac region.

Well, honey, in the left iliac region, you've got the sigmoid colon, left ureter, left ovary and fallopian tube (if you're a lady), and maybe a bit of the left kidney hanging out nearby. Just a little neighborhood of organs chilling on the left side of your lower abdomen.
The organs that are in the left iliac region include distal portion of the descending colon, usually the sigmoid colon, and portions of the small intestine.
The left hip and upper leg region would be in the lateral aspect of the lower back region and posterior aspect of the left thigh region.

The Abdominal Cavity is divided into 4 or 9 regions with the body in anatomical position. 4 regions: Right Upper Quadrant Left Upper Quadrant Right Lower Quadrant and Left lower Quadrant 9 Regions: Right Hypochondriac Region - Epigastic Region - Left Hypochondriac Region Right Lumbar Region - Umbilical Region - Left Lumbar Region Right iliac region - hypo gastric region - left iliac region
The colon is the main organ located in the left iliac region. This region is found in the lower left abdomen and is commonly referred to as the descending colon. It is a part of the large intestine and plays a role in absorbing water and electrolytes from digested food.
you are a hypochondriac...just kidding...ask a doctor
No, the iliac region and inguinal region are not the same. The iliac region is located on the lateral side of the abdomen, while the inguinal region is located in the groin area.
