Anatomical terminology |
The pectineal ligament (sometimes known as the inguinal ligament of Cooper,[1] after Astley Cooper) is an extension of the lacunar ligament that runs on the pectineal line of the pubic bone.
It was characterized by Cooper in 1804.[2][3] The structure is strong and holds suture well, facilitating reconstruction of the floor of the inguinal canal. This variant of non-prosthetic inguinal hernia repair, first used by Georg Lotheissen in Austria,[4] now bears his name.
The femoral canal lies at the medial aspect of the femoral sheath. The femoral sheath is a fascial tunnel containing both the femoral artery laterally and femoral vein medially. The canal lies medial to the vein.
Borders of the femoral canal
