Guarding the opening of the ileum into the caecum is the ileo-caecal valve, which consists of two cusps projecting into the caecum; of these the upper forms a horizontal shelf, while the lower slopes up to it obliquely.
Caecum and appendix, while in the ileum they are collected into large oval patches, known as agminated glands or Peyer's patches, the long axes of which, from half an inch to 4 in.

Note: Most modern writers restrict ileum to the division of the intestine and ilium to the pelvic bone.
The appendix is directed upward, inward and to the left, the terminal portion being frequently coiled under cover of the ileum and mesentery.
In the ventral view, with the terminal ileum lifted up, the following arrangement of folds passing between ileum and caecum is noted (Figs.
The intermediate non-vascular fold extends from the ileum downwards along the entire left border of the caecum to the root of the appendix, fusing with the dorsal vascular fold and rounding out a deep posterior ileo-caecal fossa.
From here on they become smaller, more irregular and less closely packed, and finally in the terminal two feet of the ileum disappear almost entirely (Fig.
The species composing this group thus form a link leading up to the right-angled accession of ileum to large intestine and the lateral caecum characteristic of most other mammalia.
This fold begins, in the preparation from which the figure is taken, on the ileum opposite the attached mesenteric border, 2.
The direction of the ileo-colic entrance is reversed, the ileum now entering the large intestine from below and the left upwards and to the right, instead of from right to left.
