Synonym: ligamenta intercarpalia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamenta intercostalia | The membranous layers between ribs. Synonym: membranae intercostalia, intercostal ligaments, ligamenta intercostalia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamenta intercuneiformia | Fibrous bands that unite the cuneiform bones; they are arranged in three sets: dorsal intercuneiform ligament (ligamentum intercuneiformia dorsalia), interosseous intercuneiform ligament (ligamentum intercuneiformia interossea), and plantar intercuneiform ligament (ligamentum intercuneiformia plantaria). Synonym: ligamenta intercuneiformia. (05 Mar 2000) |
