The intestines have been removed so as to show the pouch of Douglas,the lateral boundaries of the deep part of the pouch being the utero-sacralligaments. The broad ligaments, which pass out. from the uterus to the sideVail of the pelvis, have in relation to their anterior layer the round liga-ment and in relation to their posterior layer the ovary, while the tube runsalong the upper margin towards the side wall of the pelvis, the free edge ofthe broad ligament, which is unoccupied by the Fallopian tube, forming theinlundibulo-pelvic ligament, or ovario-pelvic ligament. The utero-sacralligament is a fold of peritoneum passing from the uterus a
