Round Ligament of the Uterus: Radiological and Surgical Perspective

The round ligaments of the uterus are a pair of fibromuscular cord-like structures derived from the gubernaculum and serve as a secondary support system for the uterus. The round ligaments have varied clinical and surgical implications. The involvement of round ligaments by pathological processes is underestimated. Advancements in imaging, visualization, and evaluation of round ligaments have widened our understanding of various developmental anomalies and diseases, resulting in better prognostication and management.
