In addition to these, there is in the ball and socket joint another kind of ligamentous attach- ment between the two bones, called the round ligament, or Ligamentum Teres. This is a bundle of ligamentous fibres in the form of a cord, which is inserted into the summit of the rounded head of the bone, and also in the bottom of the cup-shaped cavity that receives the head. This is somewhat lax ordinarily, but not so much so but that it keeps the head from slipping out of its socket, and at the same time allows the most perfect freedom of motion. 159. What are the Ligaments ? To what part of the bones are they generally at- tached? How are they arranged in Ginglymus joints ? Why are they sometimes found in the form of a shut sac? Describe the round ligament.
