Overview

The limbus of fossa ovalis (annulus ovalis) is the prominent oval margin of the fossa ovalis.

It is most distinct above and at the sides of the fossa; below, it is deficient.

A small slit-like valvular opening is occasionally found, at the upper margin of the fossa, leading upward beneath the limbus, into the left atrium; it is the remains of the fetal aperture between the two atria.
