The musculus obliquus internus abdominis ( lat. For "internal oblique abdominal muscle") is one of the abdominal muscles and forms the middle layer of the muscular abdominal wall. The muscle fibers of the fan-shaped muscle plate (in humans Down outside the animal behind-the outside) (in man above-inside the animal front-inside) directed largely from kaudolateral according craniomedial and intersect with those of the abdominal external oblique muscle in a 90 ° angle. Its broad tendon plate ( aponeurosis ) forms the linea alba together with those of the musculus obliquus externus abdominis and the musculus transversus abdominis . A splitting off of the muscle forms the testicle lifter ( cremaster muscle ) in men .

The conduction pathways of the abdominal wall run in the layer between the musculus obliquus internus abdominis and the muscle transversus abdominis .

The muscle internal oblique flexes the trunk, presses the stomach together and is involved in the exhalation ( expiration ).
