A broad fibroelastic sheet connecting the superior margin of the thyroid cartilage to the hyoid bone.
Situated in the cranial / head region (midline / bilateral aspect, central plane) within the connective tissue.
Jump directly to connected anatomical structures to compare their locations, functions, and 3D relationships.
Ligaments and cartilage bind skeletal elements together and cushion articular surfaces.
Tendons and aponeuroses (like the calcaneal tendon and linea alba) anchor skeletal muscles to bones and midline fascia.
