 | —The inguinal ligament is the lower border of the aponeurosis of the Obliquus externus, and extends from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle. |
| It arises, by fleshy fibers, from the lateral half of the grooved upper surface of the inguinal ligament, from the anterior two-thirds of the middle lip of the iliac crest, and from the posterior lamella of the lumbodorsal fascia. |
| It arises, by fleshy fibers, from the lateral third of the inguinal ligament, from the anterior three-fourths of the inner lip of the iliac crest, from the inner surfaces of the cartilages of the lower six ribs, interdigitating with the diaphragm, and from the lumbodorsal fascia. |

| When this ligament and the suspensory ligament are detached (as in the penis-lengthening operation) the penis becomes longer and hangs lower from the body. |
| The suspensory and fundiform ligaments are easily identified by the surgeon. |
| Release of the suspensory ligament is a relatively minor operation performed as an outpatient in a surgical center. |
