Meanings of round ligaments in inglês

Another operation is to shorten the round ligaments in the inguinal (groin) canal.

The round ligaments are strong muscular fibrous cords and serve to hold the womb forward.

The appendages of the womb are the fallopian tubes, the ovaries and their ligaments and the round ligaments.

A Fallopian tube, ovaries, uterus, and round ligaments were found, and a drawing in cross-section of the parts was made.

Projecting backward were a vagina, uterus, and broad ligaments, round ligaments, and Fallopian tubes, with the testes in the position of the ovaries.

The round ligaments are utterly unmeaning in the human female, but in the lower animals they serve the same purpose as the other ligaments.
