Detailed explanation-1: -On the right lobe of the liver, the anterior and posterior layers of the coronary ligament of the liver join to form the right triangular ligament. However, there is no true coronary ligament on the left-hand side.
Detailed explanation-2: -The bridges comprise the ligaments of the liver as follows: the falciform ligament, right and left coronary ligaments, lesser omentum including the hepatogastric ligament and hepatoduodenal ligament.
Detailed explanation-3: -The left triangular ligament is a peritoneal suspensory ligament of the liver. It is formed by the fusion of the superior and inferior reflections of the coronary ligament. It is shorter than the right triangular ligament and does not separate the left subphrenic space from the subhepatic space.
Detailed explanation-4: -Coronal reformation through the middle of the liver shows the falciform ligament dividing the medial and lateral segments of the left lobe. The ascending portion of the left portal vein also lies in the falciform ligament.
