The right triangular ligament is a peritoneal suspensory ligament of the liver. It is formed by the fusion of the superior and inferior reflections of the right coronary ligament at the right extremities of the bare area of liver.
It is longer than the left triangular ligament and compartmentalises the right subphrenic and subhepatic spaces.
