    Notes: Abstract The ligamentum flavum, of which there are only a few studies in the literature, has several features discussed in this work. On the macroscopic level, it has a metameric arrangement it has two layers, superficial and deep, whose fibers are oppposite, and it has close relations with the tendons of attachment of some spinal erector muscles. On the microscopic level, its structure is unique for a ligament, because of a predominance of elastic fibers, because of its intrinsic innervation at each level of the spine, and because this innervation grows poorer with increasing degeneration. The ligamentum flavum constitutes an active ligament, with an essential biomechanical role. Its injury is probably not without consequences, and therefore there are many technical problems about the surgical interlaminar approach.
