The rectouterine (or recto-uterine) pouch is also called the rectouterine excavation, uterorectal pouch, rectovaginal pouch, pouch of Douglas (after anatomist James Douglas, 1675–1742), Douglas pouch, [6] Douglas cavity, [6] Douglas space, [6] Douglas cul-de-sac, [6] Ehrhardt–Cole recess, Ehrhardt–Cole cul-de-sac, cavum Douglasi, or excavatio rectouterina.
The rectouterine fold is a bilaterally paired prominent ridge [1] /fold [2] of the peritoneum that represents the lateral boundary of the rectouterine pouch on either side. [1] [2] It is formed by the underlying rectouterine muscle.
The contents of the broad ligament include the following: [3] Reproductive uterine tubes (or fallopian tube) ovary (some sources consider the ovary to be on the broad ligament, but not in it.) [4] vessels ovarian artery (in the suspensory ligament) [5] uterine artery (in reality, travels in the cardinal ligament) ligaments ovarian ligament
The cardinal ligament (also transverse cervical ligament, lateral cervical ligament, [1] or Mackenrodt's ligament [2] [1]) is a major ligament of the uterus formed as a thickening of connective tissue of the base of the broad ligament of the uterus. It extends laterally (on either side) from the cervix and vaginal fornix to attach onto the ...
The common flexor sheath of hand or the ulnar bursa [1] is a synovial sheath in the carpal tunnel of the human hand. It contains tendons of the flexor digitorum superficialis and the flexor digitorum profundus , but not the flexor pollicis longus .
In human anatomy, the annular ligaments of the fingers, often referred to as A pulleys, are the annular part of the fibrous sheathes of the fingers.Four or five such annular pulleys, together with three cruciate pulleys, form a fibro-osseous tunnel on the palmar aspect of the hand through which passes the deep and superficial flexor tendons.
