DISCUSSION OF CASES A case reported by Douglas (17) corresponds very closely to the one reported above. The peritoneum was smooth, and on strip- ping it off a small mass of fat was attached to it, and lying just lateral to the pars tendinea of the falx inguinalis. It had pro- jected into a deep fossa, which easily admitted the point of a finger, and passed medialward and caudalward ending at the subcutaneous ring.
