The study analyzed the overall microstructure of eleven fresh human ligamentum teres (LT) specimens. The authors suggest that the LT «... hould no longer be considered a developmental vestige, as there is evidence to suggest that it has both mechanical and biological functions within the hip joint. As such, any surgical procedures should aim to minimize excessive damage to this structure as far as possible, so as to minimize any potential loss of function.»

1882ReevesHA

  Fragments from the book Reeves HA. Human Morphology: A Treatise on Practical and Applied Anatomy. Vol. 1. (1882). The author describes the anatomy of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) and its role.   Quote pp. 451 - 452 By arrangement with the dissector of the abdomen, who will be interested in the observation, the student should carefully trephine or chisel out a small piece from the roof of the acetabulum in order to observe what has already been stated with regard to the capsule, and also to note how the ligamentum teres is affected with regard to its tension or laxity in the various movements of the joint. He may also try to inject into the joint some warm tallow so as to note if there be any hernial protrusions or projections of the synovial membrane between the layers of the capsule, or whether the synovial membrane of the joint communicates with any of the neighbouring bursæ, more especially with the psoas bursa.
