The prin-cipal bonds of union are the anteriorand posterior ligaments. The anterior sacro-iliac ligamentcomprises a number of thin irregularfibrous bundles stretching between thefront of the sacrum and the adjacentborder of the iliac bone. Associated with the upper and lower margins ofthis ligament are thickened bundles of fibrous tissue that spread over theilium respectively as far as the ilio-pectineal line and the posterior iliac spine;.
