inguinal ring

At the other end of the canal, the deep inguinal ring forms the entrance.

It extends from inguinal ring to arcuate line.

In the case of the female, the opening of the superficial inguinal ring is smaller than that of the male.

Like other inguinal hernias, it protrudes through the superficial inguinal ring.

The bright metal suggested the wink of instruments and gave Crawford a distinct twinge in the area of his inguinal ring.

The subcutaneous inguinal ring is seen as a distinct aperture only after the intercrural fascia has been removed.

Inguinal ring can refer to:

The protrusion of peritoneum through the internal inguinal ring can be considered an incomplete obliteration of the processus.

Deep inguinal ring (annulus inguinalis profundus)

Note that the ilioinguinal nerve does not pass through the deep inguinal ring, and therefore it only travels through part of the inguinal canal.

If a woman has an indirect inguinal hernia, her internal inguinal ring is patent, which is abnormal for females.

Trankov's inguinal rings (groin) injury caused them to change a pair spin at the Grand Prix Final.

They may be located intra-abdominally, at the internal inguinal ring, or may herniate into the labia majora, often leading to the discovery of the condition.

It passes outward on the psoas major muscle, and pierces the fascia transversalis, or passes through the deep inguinal ring.

Sports hernia: a hernia characterized by chronic groin pain in athletes and a dilated superficial inguinal ring.

In an indirect inguinal hernia, the protrusion passes through the deep inguinal ring and is located lateral to the inferior epigastric artery.

As they pass across the subcutaneous inguinal ring, they are connected together by delicate fibrous tissue, forming a fascia, called the intercrural fascia.

It ends below at the abdominal inguinal ring in a tube of peritoneum, the saccus vaginalis, which protrudes itself down the inguinal canal.

It then pierces the obliquus internus, distributing filaments to it, and then accompanies the spermatic cord through the superficial inguinal ring.

The spermatic cord in the male and the round ligament of the uterus in the female pass through the transversalis fascia at a spot called the deep inguinal ring.

I was acutely aware of each movement, each breath, the tug and pull of the catgut sutures as I tightened the inguinal ring, but my hands did not belong to me.

If the internal inguinal ring does not close properly, then there is a risk that other contents of the abdominal cavity protrudes through the passageway and cause indirect inguinal hernia.
