In anatomy, the term ligament is used to denote three different types of structures
- Fibrous tissue that connects bones to other bones. They are sometimes called "articular ligaments", "fibrous ligaments", or "true ligaments".
- A fold of peritoneum or other membrane
- The remnants of a tubular structure from the fetal period of life
The first meaning is most commonly what is meant by the term "ligament". After briefly discussing the other two types of ligaments, the remainder of this article will focus upon the first type.
