The uterus is held in its position by the pelvic floor and by certain ligaments(Fig. 550). The ligaments are eight in all, four on each side. They are the broadligaments, the round ligaments, the sacro-uterine ligaments and the vesico-uterineligaments. The vesico=uterine ligaments are simply folds of peritoneum extending from theuterus to the bladder, as shown in Fig. 550. The sacro=uterine ligaments are similar folds of peritoneum extending from the 534 DISEASES OF THE UTERUS.
