title: [Imaging of connective tissue formations of the sub-umbilical anterior abdominal wall].
abstract: New high resolution imaging modalities (CT and MRI) can distinguish between bladder and anterior abdominal wall pelvic connective tissue. The main structure is the umbilicovesical fascia located anterior to the peritoneum and posterior to the transversalis fascia. This layer divides the space between an anterior prevesical space and a posterior perivesical space. An understanding of these spaces facilitates the clinical identification and topography of pelvic the fluid collections.
