RIB WITH STERNUM. 53 -Surrounds the head of the rib ; thickest Fig. 36. Posterior Coccygeal Ligament, arises from the inferior margin of the sacral canal, and terminating at the second bone of the coccyx. Obturator Ligament^ (Fig. 35).—Fills up the thyroid foramen ; is membranous and thin, perforated at its upper part for the trans- mission of the obturator vessels. Sub-Pubic Ligament.—A thick, triangular ligament, rounding the apex of the circle of the pubis; reaching from one bone to the other. Symphysis Pubis.—The bones are connected by fibro-cartilage, resembling intervertebral substance; sometimes there is a synovial membrane. A few transverse fibres in front and behind are some- times called anterior and posterior ligaments. THORAX. VERTEBRAE WITH THE RIBS. Anterior or Radiated Ligament.—Short fibres radiating from the head of the rib, to the two contiguous vertebroe and the sub- stance between them. Capsular above and below. Inter-articular Ligament.—A thin band passing from the ridge on the head of a rib to the intervertebral substance, dividing the cavity into two parts, each of which has a distinct synovial mem- brane. The first, eleventh and twelfth are exceptions to this rule. The tubercle of the rib is connected to the transverse processes by a capsu- lar ligament, and also the internal costo- transverse ligament^ passes from the inferior edge of the transverse process, and is inserted in the sharp edge of the neck of the rib below. External costo-transverse ; —Is quadrangular, extending between the transverse process and the contiguous rib. Middle costo-transverse Ligament.—A collection of short irre- gular fibres mixed with reddish adipose tissue, passing directly from the transverse process to the rib. RIB WITH STERNUM.
