| coracoacromial ligament | <anatomy> The heavy arched fibrous band that passes between the coracoid process and the acromion above the shoulder joint; the osseofibrous arch thus formed prevents upward dislocation of the shoulder (glanohumeral) joint. Synonym: ligamentum coracoacromiale. (05 Mar 2000) |

| coracoclavicular ligament | <anatomy> The strong ligament that unites the clavicle to the coracoid process; it is subdivided into the conoid ligamentum and the trapezoid ligamentum. The free upper limb is passively suspended from the clavicular "strut" by the coracoclavicular ligament; the ligament also plays an important role in preventing dislocation of the acromioclavicular joint. Synonym: ligamentum coracoclaviculare, Caldani's ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coracohumeral ligament | The ligament that passes from the base of the coracoid process to the greater tubercle of the humerus. Synonym: ligamentum coracohumerale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corniculopharyngeal ligament | <anatomy> An elastic band connecting the tip of the corniculate (Santorini's) cartilage and the lamina of the cricoid cartilage and continuing into the pharyngeal mucosa covering the cricoid lamina. Synonym: ligamentum cricopharyngeum, corniculopharyngeal ligament, cricosantorinian ligament, jugal ligament, ligamentum corniculopharyngeum, ligamentum jugale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coronary ligament of knee | Portions of the articular capsule of the knee joint which connect the circumference of the menisci with the margins of the condyles of the tibia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coronary ligament of liver | Peritoneal reflections from the liver to the diaphragm at the margins of the bare area of the liver. Synonym: ligamentum coronarium hepatis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| costoclavicular ligament | <anatomy> The ligament that connects the first rib and the clavicle near its sternal end; limits elavation of shoulder (at sternoclavicular joint). Synonym: ligamentum costoclaviculare, rhomboid ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| costocolic ligament | <anatomy> A triangular fold of peritoneum attached to the left flexure of the colon and to the diaphragm, on which rests the inferior pole or extremity of the spleen. Synonym: ligamentum phrenicocolicum, costocolic ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| costotransverse ligament | <anatomy> The ligament that connects the dorsal aspect of the neck of a rib to the ventral aspect of the corresponding transverse process. Synonym: ligamentum costotransversarium, ligamentum colli costae, middle costotransverse ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| costoxiphoid ligament | <anatomy> The ligament that connects the xiphoid process to the seventh, and often to the sixth, costal cartilages. Synonym: ligamentum costoxiphoideum, chondroxiphoid ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cotyloid ligament | A fibrocartilaginous rim attached to the margin of the acetabulum of the hip bone. Synonym: labrum acetabulare, acetabular lip, circumferential cartilage, cotyloid ligament, ligamentum cotyloideum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Cowper's ligament | <anatomy> The part of the fascia lata which is anterior to and provides origin for fibres of the pectineus muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cricopharyngeal ligament | <anatomy> An elastic band connecting the tip of the corniculate (Santorini's) cartilage and the lamina of the cricoid cartilage and continuing into the pharyngeal mucosa covering the cricoid lamina. Synonym: ligamentum cricopharyngeum, corniculopharyngeal ligament, cricosantorinian ligament, jugal ligament, ligamentum corniculopharyngeum, ligamentum jugale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cricosantorinian ligament | <anatomy> An elastic band connecting the tip of the corniculate (Santorini's) cartilage and the lamina of the cricoid cartilage and continuing into the pharyngeal mucosa covering the cricoid lamina. Synonym: ligamentum cricopharyngeum, corniculopharyngeal ligament, cricosantorinian ligament, jugal ligament, ligamentum corniculopharyngeum, ligamentum jugale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cricothyroid ligament | <anatomy> The strong band that connects the cricoid and thyroid cartilages in the midline anteriorly; it is continuous posteriorly with the conus elasticus. Synonym: conus elasticus, ligamentum cricothyroideum. (05 Mar 2000) |
