Femoral ring
text:
The femoral ring is the opening at the proximal, abdominal end of the femoral canal, and represents the base of the conically-shaped femoral canal. The femoral ring is oval-shaped, with its long diameter being directed transversely and measuring about 1.25 cm. The opening of the femoral ring is filled in by extraperitoneal fat, forming the femoral septum. Part of the intestine can sometimes pass through the femoral ring into the femoral canal causing a femoral hernia.
