Of the inguinal canal, which is INCORRECT?
(P 193 Moore, p273NM, p201 Instant Anat)
a.
Illiinguinal nerve enters the deep ring p 187
F – ductus deferens or round ligament and gonadal vessels pass through
b.
Roof formed by external oblique
F - internal oblique and transversus abdominal muscles
c.
Floor formed by inguinal ligament
T - Superior surface of inguinal ligament and lacunar ligament medially
d.
Anterior wall formed by internal oblique
F - aponeurosis of external oblique
e.
Posterior wall partly by the inguinal flax
T – transversalis fascia with medial aspect reinforced by the conjoint tendon
(inguinal flax)
f.
The ilioinguinal nerve enters the superficial ring
T – spermatic cord and gonadal vessels also
g.
the inguinal nerve does not pass through the deep ring
T - pierces the lower border of the internal oblique goes through the
inguinal canal and exits vie the superficial inguinal ring. Supplies
anterior 1/3
rd
of scrotum, root of penis/clitoris and upper medial part of groin

F
d.
the vein is medial to the artery throughout
F – VAN drives out
e.
the lateral boundary is vastus lateralis
F
f.
femoral artery lies between the saphenous nerve
and femoral vein
T
g.
adductor longus forms the roof
F

a.
The lateral circumflex femoral artery separates superficial
from deep branches of the femoral nerve
T

T
d.
femoral vein receives the great saphenous
T
e.
lateral border is medial border of Sartorius
T
f.
