Laterally we ve got the femoral branch of the genitofemoral nerve.
Femoral triangle floor.
Some sources consider the lateral border of the adductor longus to be the medial border of the femoral triangle.
The rest of this muscle forms part of the floor of the triangle.
Lateral cutaneous nerve of thigh it crosses the lateral angle of the triangle runs on the lateral side of the thigh and ends by dividing into anterior and posterior branches.
The following structures are contained within the femoral triangle from lateral to medial.
The roof of the femoral triangle consists of skin superficial and deep fascia fascia lata cribiform fascia of the the thigh.
The rest of this muscle forms part of the floor of the triangle.
We ve got a few things that pass through the femoral triangle.
These muscles make up the floor of the femoral triangle.
The floor of the femoral triangle is comprised of the adductor longus pectineus medially psoas major and illiacus muscles laterally.
However the majority state that it is the medial border of the adductor longus and this is definition we have gone with.
The floor is gutter shaped since all the muscles forming the floor pass to the posterior aspect of the femur.
Apex is present where sartorius overlaps adductor longus.
Medial to that we ve got the femoral artery.
The femoral triangle contains some of the major neurovascular.
The femoral triangle is important as a number of vital structures pass through it right under the skin.
We ve got the femoral nerve.
We ve got arteries veins nerves and lymphatics.
Anteriorly the roof of the femoral triangle is formed by the fascia lata.
Medial boundary is formed by the medial border of adductor longus.
It is a triangular depression located below the inguinal ligament in the upper 1 3rd of front of thigh.
