Ligament of Vertebrae Common Posterior

A vertebral ligament is a formation of connective tissue that connects two or more vertebrae to each other. There are several types of ligaments in the human spine, each of which performs its own function.

One of these ligaments is the common posterior vertebral ligament (commune vertebrarum posterius). It connects the posterior surfaces of the vertebrae of the cervical and lumbar spine and is one of the largest ligaments in the spine.

The common posterior ligament consists of several connective tissue elements: the posterior longitudinal and posterior transverse ligaments. The posterior longitudinal ligament runs along the entire length of the spine, providing stability and participating in movement. The posterior transverse ligament connects the spinous processes of the vertebrae, also providing stability to the spine.

The main function of the common posterior vertebral ligament is to maintain the stability of the spine and participate in its movements. In addition, it plays an important role in the formation of facet joints, which are necessary for the flexibility of the spine.

Thus, the common posterior vertebral ligament is an important element of the human spine and ensures its stability and flexibility.



The Posterior Common vertebral ligament (l. vertebrarum commune posterius), is designed to unite adjacent vertebrae, and has essential functions, helping to maintain tone, the necessary degree of stability, normal functioning of the spine and the stability of the entire spine.

The posterior common ligament is formed from connective tissues (bundles of the fibrinous tract) and is located on the sides of the dorsal section. It is located from the sacrum to the neck, located between the vertebral anatomical segments. The upper limit is inter-unit
