. Anatomy, descriptive and applied. Anatomy. OF THE ILIA C REGION 503 The portion investing the Iliacus is connected externally to the whole length of the inner border of the crest of the ilium, and internally to the brim of the true pelvis, where it is continuous with the periosteum; at the iliopectineal emi- nence it receives the tendon of insertion of the Psoas parvus, when that muscle exists. External to the external iliac vessels, this fascia is intimately connected to the posterior margin of Poupart's ligament, and is continuous with the fascia transversalis. Immediately to the outer side of the external iliac vessels, as they pass beneath Poupart's ligament, the fascia iliaca is prolonged backward and inward from Poupart's ligament as a band, the iliopectineal ligament (Fig. 376), and is attached to the iliopectineal eminence. The ligament divides the space between Poupart's ligament and the horizontal ramus of the pubis into two parts, the inner of which {lacuna vaso- rum) transmits the femoral vessels, and the femoral branch of the genitofemoral nerve is bounded internally by the base of Gimbernat's ligament and contains the femoral ring. The outer part (lacuna mus- culorum) transmits the Ilio- psoas and the femoral nerve and the external cutaneous nerve (Fig. 376). Internal to the vessels the iliac fascia is at- tached to the iliopectineal line behind the conjoined tendon, where it is again continvious with the transversalis fascia; and, corresponding to the point where the femoral vessels pass into the thigh, this fascia de- scends behind them, forming the posterior wall of the fem- oral sheath. This portion of the iliac fascia which passes behind the femoral vessels is also attached to the iliopec- tineal line beyond the limits of the attachment of the con- joined tendon; at this part it is continuous with the pubic portion of the fascia lata of the thigh. The external iliac vessels lie in front of the iliac fascia, but all the branches of the lumbar ple
