Description[edit | edit source]
The posterior atlantoaxial ligament is a broad, thin membrane attached, above, to the lower border of the posterior arch of the atlas; below, to the upper edges of the laminæ of the axis.
It is a continuation of the Ligamentum flava, and is in relation, behind, with the Obliqus capitis inferior.
