Question: "Where is the left hypochondriac region? (Your answer should be a number)"

Answer: "The left hypochondriac region is located right where area 3 is marked, based on the diagram above, in which is protected by the ribs. Hence, Area 3 would be the correct choice."

The hypochondrium refers to the two hypochondriac regions in the upper third of the abdomen; the left hypochondrium and right hypochondrium. They are located on the lateral sides of the abdominal wall respectively, inferior to (below) the thoracic cage, being separated by the epigastrium.
