The suspensory ligament of the bladder, formed by the uricus andthe two obliterated hypogastric arteries, which are situated anteriorly tothe peritoneum. They serve to support the bladder, and retain it in itsproper position. 6. The omentum magnum, formed by four layers of the peritoneum. To comprehend this thoroughly, it will be necessary tounderstand the reflections of the peritoneum, and I haveadded the accompanying diagram, for the purpose of point-ing out the various folds that this membrane makes?, , 154 THE DISSECTORS GUIDE. The diagram shows a section of the body, and the peri-toneum may be traced from any point round the viscera,back again to the same A section of the spinal column. 2. 2.
