The fossa ovalis is a diverticulum in the septal wall, at the point of entrance of the vena cava, bounded laterally by a concave margin (Limbus fossee ovalis). The fossa is the remnant of an opening in the septmn, the foramen ovale, through which the two atria communicate in the fcetus. ' The crista terminalis is shown, but not marked, in Fig. 545; it is almost opposite (anterior) to the intervenous crest.
