A treatise on the science and practice of midwifery . They are the broad, the vesieo-uterine, andsacro-uterine ligaments ; the round ligaments are not peritoneal foldslike the others. Broad Ligaments.—The broad ligaments extend from either sideof the uterus, where their laminae are separated from each other, transversely across to the pelvic wall, and thus divide the cavity ofthe pelvis into two parts; the anterior containing the bladder, theposterior the rectum. Their upper borders are divided into threesubsidiary folds, the anterior of which contains the round ligament, the middle the Fallopian tube, and the posterior the ovary. Thisarrangement has received the name of the ala vespertilionis, from itsfancied resemblance to a bats wing. Between the folds of the broadligaments are found the uterine vessels and nerves, and a certainamount of loose cellular tissue continuous with the pelvic fascia?.Here is situated that peculiar structure called the organ of Bosen-miiller, or the parovarium (Fig. 27), which is the remains of the Fig. 27..
