    This document provides an anatomical summary of the diaphragm, abdominal aorta, inferior vena cava, and related structures. It outlines the origins, terminations, openings, and tributaries of these structures. Key branches of the abdominal aorta like the celiac trunk, superior mesenteric artery, and inferior mesenteric artery are mentioned. Adjacent structures passing through openings in the diaphragm are also noted.
