Abstract
Several ligaments and peritoneal folds attach the liver to other organs and to the abdominal wall. These are the falciform ligament, ligamentum teres hepatis or round ligament, right triangular ligament, left triangular ligament, lessor omentum, and ligamentum venosum. We report a unique ligament connecting the right and left lobes of the liver, on its visceral surface near its inferior border. This ligament is seen forming a tunnel through which the ligamentum teres is seen to travel.The knowledge can be used by the radiologists and clinicians in image interpretation and subsequent clinical diagnosis and by anatomists and embryologists for academic interests. Further, this ligament and the tunnel formed by it maybe a potential site for strangulation of abdominal content.
