. The anatomy and surgical treatment of hernia. ls into lateral apposition. In the following plate from Cloquet, the deep dissection was made so as todemonstrate the vessels and their relations to the deeper portions of the inguinalcanal.

This disposition of the parts is the more noteworthy since, inthe normal condition, muscular activity and violent exertion, regardless of the positionof the body, has little or no effect in disturbing the relationship of the parts. Intra-abdominal pressure only serves to close the lateral walls of the canal, while theattachment of the cord to the surrounding parts is such that undue strain or tensionis scarcely possible.
