Between the two posterior falseligaments lies the recto or utero-vesical cul-de-sac. The lateral false ligaments pass from the lateral pelvic wall to thesides of the bladder, but are not distinctly marked off from the posteriorligaments except by the line of the obliterated hypogastric artery. Underthe fold of the lateral false ligaments pass the vas deferens and thevesical artery. The trne liga/ments consist of reflections of pelvic fascia.

The urachus itself might be considered a true ligament, as it consistsof fibrous tissue with muscle-fibers prolonged from the bladder on to itslower part. The foetal tubular condition of the urachus may persist, usually in theform of an interrupted cavity lined by an epithelium like that of thebladder. This may open at the umbilicus, and discharge a mucous secre-tion, or, in rare cases, urine may pass through the whole length and escapeat the umbilicus.
