During routine osteological demonstration in the Anatomy Department of a Medical College, a rare spinous projection from the superior ramus of pubis 1.5 cm lateral to pubic tubercle was seen in hip bone. This process seems to be ossified septum between medial and intermediate compartment of femoral sheath. The finding is of great surgical importance in the inguinal region especially in cases of femoral hernia.
