Study Notes
Accessory Ligament of the Femoral Head
- Unique anatomical feature found in horses and donkeys, not present in cattle.
- Connects the prepubic tendon to the head of the femur.
- Its presence contributes to the stability of the hip joint in equines.
Clinical Importance
- Provides additional support, reducing the likelihood of hip joint dislocation (subluxation) in equines.
- Offers protection against hip joint lunation, enhancing overall mobility and athletic performance in these animals.
- Highlights the anatomical variations among species regarding hip joint stability.
External Pudendal Artery
- Courses through the inguinal canal and exits at the superficial inguinal ring.
- Supplies blood to the lower abdominal region and adjacent structures.
Branching and Function
- Gives rise to the caudal superficial epigastric artery at the superficial inguinal lymph node level.
- The caudal superficial epigastric artery travels cranially, aiding in blood supply.
Blood Supply Area
- Supplies the caudoventral quadrant of the abdominal wall.
- Provides nourishment to adjacent mammary glands.
Anastomosis
- Forms anastomoses with the cranial superficial epigastric artery, ensuring collateral blood flow.
