====== INGUINAL REGION (LATERAL ILIAC REGIONS) ======


  * INGUINAL CANAL 
   * LENGTH AND DIRECTION 
     * superficial inguinal ring to 
       * triangular gap in extern obliq  
       * obtuse triangle 
         * base of triangle 
           * pubic crest 
         * sides 
           * lateral and medial margins of opening 
           * margins are called crura
         * apex 
           * join to form intercrural fibres  
     * deep inguinal ring  
       * oval opening in fascia transversalis 
       * situated above midinguinal point 
   * BOUNDARIES 
     * ANTERIOR WALL
       * whole extent 
       * lateral 1/3 rd  
     * POSTERIOR WALL 
       * whole posterior wall 
       * medial 2/3 rd  
     * ROOF 
     * FLOOR 
   * STRUCTURES PASSING THROUGH CANAL 
     * Spermatic cord 
     * coverings of spermatic cord 
   * MECHANISM OF INGUINAL CANAL 
     * obliquity of inguinal canal 
     * guarding mechanism 
       * superficial inguinal ring guarded from behind by 
         * conjoint tendon 
       * deep inguinal ring guarded infront by 
         * internal oblique
     * shutter mechanism 
       * internal oblique
