Inferior epigastric artery forms the boundary of
HESSELBACH'S TRIANGLE:-
Boundaries-
1. Medially-Lateral border of rectus abdominis
2. Laterally- inferior epigastric artery.
3. Base - inguinal ligament.
FEMORAL TRIANGLE:-
Triangular depression in front of the upper one-third of the thigh immediately below the inguinal ligament.
BOUNDARIES:-
1. Laterally: medial border of Sartorius.
2. Medially: medial border of adductor longus.
3. Base: inguinal ligament.
4. Apex: directed downwards.formed by the point where the medial and lateral boundaries cross.apex is continuous with the adductor canal.
5. Roof: skin, superficial fascia and deep fascia. Superficial fascia contains superficial inguinal lymph nodes, a femoral branch of the genitofemoral nerve, branches of ilioinguinal nerve, superficial branches of the femoral artery with accompanying veins and the upper part of the great saphenous vein.
6. Floor: medially by adductor longus and pectineus, and laterally by the psoas major and iliacus.
