KD-11 is located on the lower abdomen, 5 cun below the umbilicus, at the superior border of the pubic symphysis, 0.5 cun lateral to the midline. Which point is this?

• A. REN-2
• B. KD-12
• C. KD-11
• D. KD-10

Answer: (C)

Understanding where abdominal points sit relies on precise cun measurements from a landmark (the umbilicus) and how far they are from the midline. This description places a point five cun below the umbilicus and only half a cun to the side of the midline, at the upper edge of the pubic bone. That exact spot is a Kidney meridian point on the lower abdomen, known for being just lateral to the midline and near the pubic symphysis. So this location corresponds to KD-11. The other possibilities would be located either on the midline or at a different offset from the midline or from the umbilicus, so they don’t match this precise description.
