3. Ligamentum teres femoris (1), ein kegelförmiges oder vielmehr dreiseitig pyramidenförmiges, 27 mm langes Band, liegt innerhalb des Gelenkes (Fig. 58. Nr. 3, S. 128), entspringt breit in der Incisura (welche beim Aufrechtstehen den tiefsten Theil der Pfanne bildet) und dem unteren Theile der Fossa acetabuli, auch vom Lig. transversum acetabuli, steigt in der Fossa acetabuli, zwischen dem Boden derselben und dem medialen umfange des Kopfes aufwärts, und inserirt sich zugespitzt in der Fovea capitis femoris. Sein hinterer Rand hat bei aufrechter Stellung des Körpers und des Beckens eine vollkommen senkrechte Richtung.  Es ist von der Synovialkapsel scheidenförmig umhüllt und füllt, nebst dem das Ligament umgebenden Fettgewebe, die Fossa acetabuli und die Fovea capitis femoris vollständig aus, so dass nirgends in der Pfanne ein leerer Raum bleibt. 

1) s. teres acetabuli, s. rotundum, s. capsulare internum, s. interarticulare, s. Plica synovialis, s. Interartiularis coxa.
