Shrapnell's membrane
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In human anatomy, Shrapnell's membrane (also known as Rivinus’ ligament) is the small, triangular, flaccid portion of the tympanic membrane lying above the malleolar folds, attached directly to the petrous bone at the notch of Rivinus. It is named after Henry Jones Shrapnell.
