  • The Femoral Hernia: Some Necessary Additions

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Purpose: The anatomic region through which most inguinal hernias emerge is overcrowded by various anatomical structures with intricate relationships. This is reflected by the wide range of anatomic interpretations. Material and Methods: A prospective anatomic study of over 100 fresh cadavers and 47 patients operated on for femoral hernias. Results: It was found that the transver- salis fascia did not continue distally into the lymphatic lacuna. Medially this fascia did not reach the lacunar ligament, but was rather positioned above it forming laterally the vascular sheath. Here the fascia participates in the formation of a fossa, which varies in width and depth—the pre- peritoneal femoral fossa. The results did not confirm the presence of a femoral canal. The dis- tances were measured between the pubic tubercle and the medial margin of the femoral vein, and between the inguinal and the Cooper’s ligaments. The results clearly indicate that in women with femoral hernias these distances are much larger. Along the course of femoral hernia exploration we established the presence of three zones that are rigid and narrow.

E-mail: [email protected] ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………...… Abstract Objective: Femoral vessels are one of the frequently used sites of cannulation in intensive care units. In resource limited settings cannulations are done blindly without ultrasonographic guidance based on a traditional belief that in the upper thigh vein keeps a medial relationship to artery. In this trial we tried to analyse the anatomical relationship of femoral vein to femoral artery using ultrasound in critically ill patients. Methods: This cross sectional study analysed the anatomical relationship of femoral vein to femoral artery at 2cm, 4 cm and 6 cm from the mid inguinal point in both thighs of the patients using ultrasonography. The study was done among patients admitted in a multidisciplinary intensive care unit. Results: Three hundred limbs of one hundred and fifty patients were analysed by ultrasonography. A total of 900 measurements were taken at three different levels of both legs.

DOI: 10.29011/JORT-139.000039 Received Date: 3 June, 2017; Accepted Date: 8 June, 2017; Published Date: 15 June, 2017 Abstract We provide an anatomical review of the femoral triangle, its application to the anterior surgical approach to the hip, and a useful mnemonic for remembering the contents and relationship of the femoral triangle. The femoral triangle is located on the anterior aspect of the thigh, inferior to the inguinal ligament and knowledge of its contents has become increasingly more important with the rise in use of the Smith-Petersen Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) to the hip as well as ultrasound and fluo- roscopic guided hip injections. A detailed knowledge of the anatomical landmarks can guide surgeons in their anterior approach to the hip, avoiding iatrogenic injuries during various procedures. The novel mnemonic “NAVIgate” the femoral triangle from lateral to medial will aid in remembering the borders and contents of the triangle when performing surgical procedures, specifically the DAA.

  • Anterior and Medial Thigh
    Objectives • Define the boundaries of the femoral triangle and adductor canal and locate and identify the contents of the triangle and canal. • Identify the anterior and medial osteofascial compartments of the thigh. • Differentiate the muscles contained in each compartment with respect to their attachments, actions, nerve and blood supply. Anterior and Medial Thigh • After removing the skin from the anterior thigh, you can identify the cutaneous nerves and veins of the thigh and the fascia lata. The fascia lata is a dense layer of deep fascia surrounding the large muscles of the thigh. The great saphenous vein reaches the femoral vein by passing through a weakened part of this fascia called the fossa ovalis which has a sharp margin called the falciform margin. Cutaneous Vessels • superficial epigastric artery and vein a. supplies the lower abdominal wall b. artery is a branch of the femoral artery c. vein empties into the greater saphenous vein • superficial circumflex iliac artery and vein a. supplies the upper lateral aspect of the thigh b. artery is a branch of the femoral c. vein empties into the greater saphenous vein • superficial and deep external pudendal arteries and veins a. supplies external genitalia above b. artery is a branch of the femoral artery c. vein empties into the greater saphenous vein • greater saphenous vein a. begins and passes anterior to the medial malleolus of the tibia, up the medial side of the lower leg b. passes a palm’s breadth from the patella at the knee c. ascends the thigh to the saphenous opening in the fascia lata to empty into the femoral vein d.
