Description

The integrity of the vertebral column is reinforced by several sets of ligaments. Strong ligaments, such as the anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments, line the vertebral bodies. In addition, the ligamenta flava, interspinous, supraspinous, and intertransverse ligaments join adjacent vertebrae and aid in stability of the vertebral column.
