Acknorvledgements
We would like to express our great gratitude to all coworkerswho helped to make the Atlas a success. We are particularly in-debted to those who dissected new specimens with great skill andknowledge, particularly to JeffBryant (member of our staff) andDr. Martin Rexer (now Klinikum Fiirth), who prepared most ofthe new specimens of the fifth and sixth edition. We would alsolike to thank Dr. K. Okamoto (now Nagasaki, Japan), who dis-sected many excellent specimens of the fourth edition, also in-cluded in the fifth edition. Furthermore, we are greatly indebtedto Prof. Winfried Neuhuber and his coworkers for their greatefforts in supporting our work.
The specimens ofthe previous editions also depicted in this vol-ume were dissected with great skill and enthusiasm by Prof. Dr. S.Nagashima (now Nagasaki, Japan), Dr. Mutsuko Takahashi (nowTokyo), Dr. Gabriele Lindner-Funk (Erlangen), Dr. P Landgraf (Er-langen), and Miss Rachel M. McDonnell (now Dallas, Texas, USA).
We would also like to express our many thanks to Prof. W.Bautz (Radiologisches Institut, Universitiit Erlangen-Niirnberg)and Prof. A. Heuck (Radiologisches Zentrum, Miinchen-Pasing),who provided the newly included excellent CT and MRI scans.
We are also greatly indebted to Mr. Hans Sommer (SOMSOCo., Coburg), who kindly provided a number of excellent bone spe-clmens.
Finally, we would like to express oru great gratitude to ourphotographer, Mr. Marco G<iBwein, who contributed the very ex-cellent macrophotos. Excellent and untiring work was done byour secretaries, Mrs. Lis Kohler and Elisabeth Glas, as well byour artists, Mr. Jcirg Pekarsky and Mrs. Annette Gack, who notonly performed excellent new drawings but revised effectivelythe layout ofthe new edition.
Last but not least, we would like to express our sincere thanksto all scientists, students, and other coworkers, particularly to theones at the publishing companies themselves.

Twenty-three years after its first edition lhe Atlas was again tho-roughly revised and modernized. Numerous new figures were in-corporated. Nearly 30 new photographs taken from newly dis-sected specimens, many new drawings, an4 for the first time,photographs ofthe surface anatomy ofthe human body were ad-ded. To avoid an undesirable increase in volume size we omittedall figures of minor quality from the previous editions and revi-sed thoroughly the layout ofthe book. To provide a more detailedoutline on cross sectional and regional anatomy which becomesincreasingly important to clinical work, we added a great numberof CT and MRI scans taken with latest modern techniques.
Each chapter of this edition consists of two parts. The firstpart describes the anatomical struchrre of the organs in a sys-temic manner, e.g., in the case of an extremity: bones, joints,ligaments, muscles, blood vessels, and nerves. In the second part,the regional anatomy is depicted, so that the description of thesuperficial layers is followed by the deeper and deepest layers;thus the student in the lab can find the orientation needed for thedissection of the cadaver. When viewing the photographs, the useof a magnifier is strongly recommended in order to identifomore precisely the three-dimensional structure of the tissues andorgans depicted.
Preface to the Sixth Edition
While preparing this new edition, the authors were remindedof how precisely, beautifully, and admirably the human body isconstructed. If this book helps the student or medical doctor toappreciate the overwhelming beauty of the anatomical architec-ture of tissues and organs in the human, then it greatly fulfills itstask. Deep interest and admiration of the anatomical structuresmay create the "love for man", which alone can be considered ofprimary importance for daily medical work.
We would like to express our great gratitude to all coworkersfor their skilled work. Without their help the improvement of theAtlas would not have been possible. We would also like to ex-press our sincere thanks to those at Schattauer GmbH, Stuttgart,Germany, Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, Baltimore, Maryland,USA, and lgaku-Shoin, Tokyo, Japan, who always listened to oursuggestions and invested a gain a great deal oftheir effort into im-proving this book.

Preface to the First Edition
Today there exist any number of good anatomic atlases. Conse-quently, the advent of a new work requires justification. Wefound three main reasons to undertake the publication of such abook. First of all, most of the previous atlases contain mainlyschematic or semischematic drawings which often reflect realityonly in a limited way; the third dimension, i.e., the spatial effect,is lacking. In contrast, the photo of the actual anatomic specimenhas the advantage of conveying the reality of the object with itsproportions and spatial dimensions in a more exact and realisticmanner than the "idealized", colored "nice" drawings of mostprevious atlases. Furthermore, the photo of the human specimencorresponds to the student's observations and needs in the dis-section courses. Thus he has the advantage of immediate orienta-tion by photographic specimens while working with the cadaver.Secondly, some of the existing atlases are classified by systemicrather than regional aspects. As a result, the student needs severalbooks each supplying the necessary facts for a certain region ofthe body. The present atlas, however, tries to portray macroscopicanatomy with regard to the regional and stratigraphic aspects ofthe object itself as realistically as possible. Hence it is animmediate help during the dissection courses in the study of me-dical and dental anatomy.Another intention of the authors was to limit the subject to the es-sential and to offer it didactically in a way that is self-explana-tory. To all regions of the body we added schematic drawings ofthe main tributaries of nerves and vessels, of the course andmechanism of the muscles, of the nomenclature of the variousregions, etc. This will enhance the understanding of the detailsseen in the photographs. The complicated architecture of theskull bones, for example, was not presented in a descriptive way,
but rather through a series of figures revealing the mosaic ofbones by adding one bone to another, so that ultimately thecomposition of skull bones can be more easily understood.Finally, the authors also considered the present situation in medi-cal education. On one hand there is a universal lack ofcadaversin many departments of anatomy, while on the other hand therehas been a considerable increase in the number of students al-most everywhere. As a consequence, students do not have accessto sufficient illustrative material for their anatomic studies. Ofcourse, photos can never replace the immediate observation, butwe think the use of a macroscopic photo instead of a paintedmostly idealized picture is more appropriate and is an improve-ment in anatomic sfudy over drawings alone.The majority of the specimes depicted in the atlas were preparedby the authors either in the Dept. of Anatomy in Erlangen, Ger-many, or in the Dept. of Anatomy, Kanagawa Dental College,Yokosuka, Japan. The specimens ofthe chapter on the neck andthose ofthe spinal cord demonstrating the dorsal branches ofthespinal nerves were prepared by Dr. K. Schmidt with great skilland enthusiasm. The specimens of the ligaments of the vertebralcolumn were prepared by Dr. Th. Mokrusch, and a great numberof specimens in the chapter of the upper and lower limb was verycarefully prepared by Dr. S. Nagashima, Kurume, Japan.Once again, our warmest thanks go out to all of our co-workersfor their unselfish, devoted and highly qualified work.

1 GeneralAnatomy
In contrast to most other mammals the human body isadapted for bipedal locomotion. Three general princi-ples in the architecture of the human organism are re-cognizable:1. The principle of segmentation, which dominates
in the trunk. The vertebral column and the thoraxconsist of relatively equal, segmentally arrangedelements.
2. The principle of bilateral symmetry. Both sides ofthe body are separated by a midsagittal plane andresemble each other like image and mirror-image.
3. The principle of polarity between the head at oneend of the body and the lower extremities at theother. As the center of the information system thehead contains the main sensory organs and the brain.The head has a predominantly spherical form, whilethe extremities consist of radially formed skeletalelements, the number of which increases distally.

A. The skull consists of two parts:1. a cranial part containing mainly the brain and
the sensory organs and2. afacial part containing the nasal and oral cavities
and the chewing apparatus. The cranial cavity iscontinuous with the vertebral canal, which con-tains the spinal cord.
The thorax contains the respiratory and circulatoryorgans (lung, heart, etc.) but also some of theabdominal organs, which are located underneath thediaphragm.The abdominal cavity contains the organs of metab-olism such as the liver. the stomach. and the intesti-nal tract as well as the excretory and genital organs(kidney, uterus, urinary bladder, etc.). The latter arelocated primarily in the pelvic cavity with the excep-tion of the testes.

MRI scan of the thigh (axial section through the middle of theleft thigh, the same level as the CT scan).
The bones of the skeletal system consist of two differentparts, the spongy and the compact bone. The spongybone trabeculae are highly adapted to mechanical forcesrevealing a trajectorial structure. The intertrabecularspaces are filled with bone malrow, the site of bloodformation. The appearance of bones, muscles, and softtissues is quite different in CT and MRI scans. The CTscans relate well to radiographs in that areas of greatabsorption such as bones are white, and those with
CT scan of the section through the middle of the left
thigh (axial section). Note the differences between the
CT and MRI scan (see text below).
little absorption such as fat appear black. In contrast, theintensity of signals in MRI scans, obtained withoutX-rays but by magnetic forces, is different so that denseareas ofbones appear black and soft tissues such as bonemzrrow and fat appear white (for comparison see abovefigures).A highly innervated periosteum is an essential structurefor bone nutrition, blood supply, growth, and bonerepalr.

Obturator internus muscle as an example of a muscle, the
tendon of which does not act in the direction of the main
muscle fibers Its fibers originate at the internal aspect of the
obturator foramen, turn around the posterior rim of the
ischium, and insert at the greater trochanter of the femur The
ischium thereby serves as a pulley.
Superior oblique muscle of the eyeball, right eye (superior

t4 1 General Anatomy Organization of the Nervous System
Brain, the spinal cord and the spinal nerves in the fetus(posterior aspect).
The nervous system can be divided into three, function-ally distinct parts:1. The cranial part, which comprises the great sensory
organs and the brain,the spinal cord, which shows a segmental structureand serves predominantly as a reflex-organ, andthe autonomic neryous system, which controls theinvoluntary functions (subconscious control) of or-gans and tissues. The autonomic part of the nervoussystem forms many delicate plexus within the organs.At certain places these plexus contain aggregations ofnerve cells (prevertebral and intramural ganglia).

Schematic drawing to illustrate the three main parts of thenervous system in general.
The spinal nerves leave the spinal cord at regular inter-vals, forming the 8 cervical, 72 thoracic, 5 lumbar,5 sacral, and a varying number of coccygeal segments.The ventral rami of the first four cervical spinal nerves(Cr-C+) form the cervical plexus (for innervation of theanterior neck); the ventral rami of the lower cervicalspinal nerves (C5-T1) form the brachial plexus, whichinnervates the upper extremity; and the ventral rami ofthe lumbar and sacral spinal nerves form the lum-bosacral plexus (Lr-S+), which innervates the pelvic andgenital organs and the lower extremity.

Lymphatic vessels originate in the tissue spaces (lymphcapillaries) and unite to form larger vessels (lymphatics).These resemble veins but have a much thinner wall,more valves, and are interrupted by lymph nodes at vari-ous intervals . Large groups of lymph nodes are located inthe inguinal and axillary regions, deep to the mandibleand sternocleidomastoid muscle, and within the root ofthe mesentery of the intestine.Deep cervical nodes, adjacent to the intemal jugular vetn.

light reflex. If lesions of the chiasma destroy the crossing
fibers of the nasal portions of the retina (B), both tempo-
ral helds of vision are lost (bitemporal hemianopsia). If
both lateral angles of the chiasma are compressed (C),
the nondecussating fibers from the temporal retinae are
affected, resulting in loss of nasal visual fields (binasal
hemianopsia). Lesions posterior to the chiasma (D) (i. e.'
optic tract, lateral geniculate body, optic radiation, or
visual cortex) result in a loss of the entire opposite field
of vision (homonymous hemianopsia).

In binocular vision the visual field (40) is projected uponportions of both retinae (blue and red in the drawing). Inthe chiasma the fibers from the two retinal portions arecombined to form the left optic tract. The fibers of the twoeyes remain separated from each other throughout theentire visual pathway up to their final termination in thecalcarine cortex (21). Injuries on the optic pathway pro-duce visual defects whose nature depends on the locationof the injury. Destruction of one optic nerve (A) producesblindness in the corresponding eye with loss of pupillary

Vessels of the Head and Neck: Veins I71
Veins of head and neck (anterior aspect). Part of the thoracic wall, clavicle, and sternocleidomastoid muscle
have been removed. Veins were colored blue: arteries, red.
The internal jugular vein is the continuation of thesigmoid sinus, which drains most of the venous blood fromthe brain together with the external cerebrospinal fluid.By joining the subclavian vein it forms the right brachio-cephalic vein, which continues on the right side directlyinto the superior vena cava. The common way to intro-duce the lead from a pacemaker device into the heart isby way of the cephalic vein. On the left side the thoracicduct joins the internal jugular vein at that point where thesubclavian vein and the internal jugular vein form the
left brachiocephalic vein. Note that the subclavian vein
lies in front of the scalenus anterior muscle, whereas the
subclavian artery together with the plexus brachialis lie
posterior to that muscle. The cephalic vein joins the
axillary vein by passing into the deltopectoral triangle.
The subclavian vein is strongly frxed to the first rib, so
that it can be punctured with a needle at that point(underneath the sternal end of the clavicle) to introduce
a catheter (subclavian line).

Skeleton ofthe trunk, vertebral column, pelvis, thorax, and shoulder girdle(anterior aspect).
The trunk is divided into segments best visible in thethoracic region, where each segment consists of a pair ofribs connected anteriorly by the sternum and posteriorlyby a thoracic veftebra. In the lumbar part of the vertebralcolumn, only vestiges of ribs are present, they formwhat appear to be the transverse processes. In cervicalvertebrae, remnants of ribs are part of the transverse
processes. Each segment also comprises muscles (e.g.,
intercostal muscles), nerves, and vessels. However, in
the cervical and lumbar region the muscular segmentsfuse with each other, forming large muscle plates,
for example, the oblique muscles of the abdomen,while vessels and nerves still retain their segmentalpattern.

Inguinal hernias may either pass throughthe inguinal canal lateral to the inferiorepigastric artery (indirect or lateral inguinalhernias, A and C) or directly penetrate theabdominal wall through the inguinaltriangle located medial to the inferiorepigastric artery (direct or medial inguinalhernias, B). The lateral hernias can becongenital if the vaginal process remainsopen (C) or acquired (A) if the herniadevelops independently of a patent proces-sus vaginalis.Femoral hernias generally protrudethrough the femoral ring below theinguinal ligament. Proper assessment ofthe site of herniation requires the identifi-cation of both the inguinal ligament andthe epigastric artery.

Lungs: BronchopulmonarySegments 251
Distribution of bronchopulmonary segments of the lungs and their relation to the bronchial tree (after J. F. Huber).
The bronchopulmonary segments are morphologicallyand functionally separate independent respiratory unitsof the lung tissue. Each segment is surrounded byconnective tissue that is continuous with the visceralpleura. The segmental bronchi in a segment are central,closely accompanied by branches of the pulmonary
arteries, whereas the tributaries of the pulmonary veins run
between the segments. Thus, the veins serve two adjacentsegments that drain for the most pafi into more than one
vein. A bronchopulmonary segment is therefore not a
complete vascular unit, but segmentation is the result of
a specific architecture of the lung vasculature.

The prostate is located between the bladder and urogenitaldiaphragm. The penis includes the urethra and thusserves for both ejaculation and micturition. The intemal(involuntary) and external (voluntary) urethral sphinctersare widely separated. The ureter having crossed theductus deferens enters the urinary bladder at its base.The peritoneum is reflected off the posterior surface ofthe bladder onto the rectum. thus forming the rectovesicalpouch.

Because of his upright posture, man'supper limb has developed a high de-gree of mobility. The shoulder girdleis to a great extent movable in thethorax and is connected with the trunkonly by the sternoclavicular joint. Afurther characteristic of man's forearmis the capacity for rotation (i. e., prona-tion and supination).

Skeleton of right wrist and hand (palmar aspect)
The human hand rs one of the most admirable structuresof the human body. The carpometacarpal joint of thethumb, a saddle joint, enjoys wide mobility, so that thethumb can get in contact with all other fingers, thusenabling the hand to become an instrument for graspingand psychologic expression. During evolution these
newly developed functions appeared after the erectposture of the human body was achieved. An inevitableprerequisite for the development of human cultures isnot only the differentiation of the brain but also thedevelopment of an organ capable of realizing its ideas:the human hand.

(lateral malleolus)
The lower limb (extremity) is specialized forsupport of the upright posture, locomotion, andmaintaining balance. In contrast to the upperlimb, the lower limb is more restricted in itsmovements, and the joints are tighter and frxedby strong ligaments. The hip joint is a ball-and-socket type of synovialjoint between the head ofthe femur and acetabulum. The knee joint is ahinge type of synovial joint that permits onlylimited rotation. The talocrural joint is a hingejoint between the talus, fibula, and tibia, onlyallowing movements of flexion and extension.The long axis ofthe foot is at a right angle to thatof the leg, thus forming an effective arch for theupright stance of man.

The pelvic girdle is hrmly connected to the vertebralcolumn at the sacro-iliac joint. Therefore, the body canbe kept upright more easily even if only one limb is usedfor support (as in walking). The mobility of the lowerIimb is more limited than that of the upper limb.
