 | | The urogenital diaphragm is often confused with the pelvic floor, which is a true diaphragm supporting many of the pelvic organs. |  | | The urogenital diaphragm is an archaic term describing a layer of the pelvis separating deep perineal sac from the upper pelvis. |  | | Unfortunately, the term is still in common use despite the fact that such a discrete border of the sac probably does not exist. |
