Vessels that provide blood to the testicle exit the abdomen through a hole in the abdominal wall (inguinal ring). In women, this ring is also present, despite the absence of testicular vessels. In normal cases, the inguinal ring is small enough to prevent the passage of abdominal contents (such as the small or large intestines) outside of the abdominal cavity.
